Where to Use Transparent GIFs
Transparent GIFs are useful for website overlays and banners, sticker packs, chat and social media reactions, presentation slides, and layered video editing projects.
Tips for a Clean Cutout
GIFs with a solid, even-colored background (like a plain green or white screen) key out most cleanly. Start with a low tolerance and increase it gradually, then add a small amount of edge feather to smooth out jagged edges.
