GIF to WebP workflow tips

Still WebP, not animated WebP

Keep files private
Your image stays in your browser while canvas creates the WebP download. ClearUtils does not upload or store the source GIF.
Continue image prep
Pair WebP output with Image Resizer, Image Compressor, or Image Metadata Remover when another cleanup step is needed.

- Review the preview, dimensions, and quality option.
- Convert the first visible frame, then download the WebP output from your browser.
