Frequently asked questions
Does the image lose quality converting GIF to TGA?
No. TGA stores pixels uncompressed or with lossless RLE, so nothing is lost beyond the GIF's existing 256-color palette.
Why convert a GIF to TGA?
TGA is common in game and video pipelines because it stores a clean alpha (transparency) channel alongside the image.
What opens a TGA file?
GIMP, IrfanView, Paint.NET, and the browser-based Photopea all open TGA, and all are free.
Is an animated GIF preserved?
No. Only the first frame is kept, since TGA holds a single image.
