Make it move, pixel by pixel.

Zoetrope is a small suite of browser-based tools for GIFs and pixel art: animate layered images into a GIF, draw pixel art from scratch or from a photo, and bring that pixel art to life with motion built for the medium — no install, no upload to a server.

3 tools, one workbench 0 uploads required 5 export formats — PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, SVG

GIF Editor Free

Stack images and animated GIFs as layers, then push, spin, warp and recolor them into a looping GIF — entirely in your browser.

Pixel Art Creator Free

Pick an 8 to 128px grid, build or randomize a palette, paint with brush, eraser and transparency tools, or convert a photo into pixel art.

Pixel Art Animator

Select regions of a piece and animate them independently — side-to-side, orbiting, color-cycling — while staying snapped to the pixel grid.

About Zoetrope

Zoetrope is built by ZingLab. The GIF Editor and Pixel Art Creator are free with no account required; the Pixel Art Animator is a paid tool once it leaves development. Nothing you create is uploaded anywhere — projects live in your browser and as files you save or download yourself.
