Question 1

What is a JPG to GIF converter?

Accepted Answer

A JPG to GIF converter turns a JPG photo into a GIF file, for apps and tools that only take GIF.

This one scores every file.

Question 2

Why is the GIF bigger than the JPG?

Accepted Answer

GIF was made for simple graphics, so it stores photos poorly.

In my tests the GIFs were 2 to 5.5 times bigger, in both converters.

Question 3

How do I make the GIF smaller?

Accepted Answer

Set a max width in the settings before you convert.

Half the width made my test GIFs a quarter to a fifth of the size.

Question 4

Can it make an animated GIF?

Accepted Answer

No, one JPG makes one still GIF.

For a moving GIF, start from a video with a video to GIF converter.

It runs in your browser, so it costs nothing to run.
