I have an animated .gif with transparent areas that’s showing distracting black spots around its edges. All I need is a cleaned-up version where those artifacts disappear and the outline feels smooth and seamless, as if the issue never existed. What must stay exactly the same is the transparency, the current frame rate and animation quality, and the original colours—no shifts, fades, or dropped frames. You’ll receive the source file right here on the platform, and I’d like the fixed file delivered in the same format plus, if you wish, a lossless master (PNG sequence or layered PSD) for future tweaks. Deliverable • One repaired .gif—same dimensions, loop, frame order, and palette, but with completely clear, artifact-free edges. I’ll review by overlaying the new file on multiple backgrounds to be sure no edge pixels remain. Once it passes that simple test, we’re done.

You need a precise cleanup of a transparent animated GIF while preserving every aspect of the original animation. I have experience working with GIF optimization, transparency handling, and frame-by-frame artifact correction to eliminate edge halos, black pixels, and transparency issues without affecting animation quality. Here's how I'll handle it: • Remove all black edge artifacts around transparent areas • Preserve the original frame rate, timing, dimensions, loop settings, and frame order • Maintain the exact color palette and transparency behavior • Inspect the animation frame-by-frame to ensure seamless edges on any background • Export the repaired GIF and optionally provide a lossless master version Deliverables: • Cleaned, artifact-free GIF • Optional PNG sequence or layered PSD for future edits I focus on pixel-perfect results and understand your overlay testing process, so the final file will be checked against multiple backgrounds before delivery. Ready to fix this quickly and ensure the issue looks like it never existed ?

Hi! This sounds like a classic transparency-edge issue that often appears when GIFs are exported with imperfect matte settings or leftover pixels around the alpha boundaries. Since your goal is to keep the animation exactly as it is, the focus should be on cleaning the edge artifacts without affecting timing, colors, transparency, or frame sequence. My first step would be extracting and inspecting the frames individually to identify whether the black spots are palette-related or actual edge pixels, then correcting them frame-by-frame before rebuilding the GIF with the original dimensions, loop settings, and frame rate intact. ✅ No changes to animation speed, colors, or transparency ✅ Clean, seamless edges that hold up on light and dark backgrounds ✅ Optional lossless master files (PNG sequence or PSD) included I'm available to start immediately. Send me the GIF and I can review the issue right away and deliver a clean, artifact-free version quickly.
