Complete the workflow in three browser-local steps.
Choose a GIF
Select an animated GIF from your device.
Set the crop
Enter X, Y, width, and height or choose a common aspect ratio.
Download or share
Create the cropped animation, download it, or upload it to Zight.
Keep the animation intact
Every frame is composited before cropping so partial-frame GIFs do not lose unchanged pixels.
Use one stable crop
Applying the same rectangle to every frame prevents jumps and keeps the subject in a consistent position.
Preserve playback timing
The output retains the source frame delays so the animation does not unexpectedly speed up or slow down.
Check edges before sharing
Preview the complete loop and confirm cursors, tooltips, menus, and final states remain inside the crop.
