About GIF Overlay Tool
Layering one element on top of an animated GIF opens up a lot of creative options, from dropping a sticker onto a loop to placing a banner across a clip. The GIF Overlay Tool lets you put an image or text on top of an existing GIF, keeping it positioned over the animation so the original motion still plays underneath your added element.
Upload your GIF, add the image or text you want on top, set where it sits, and the tool composites it onto each frame and rebuilds the looping animation. Everything happens in your browser, with no software to install and no account to create. Your files are processed only to build the overlay and aren't kept afterward, and the result comes out with no watermark added by the tool. It's free, so you can experiment with different overlays until it looks right.
