Troubleshooting & Common Platform Errors

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is APNG better than GIF for Discord stickers?

GIF only supports 1-bit transparency (a pixel is either 100% transparent or 100% opaque), which creates ugly white fringing on dark themes. APNG supports 8-bit alpha transparency for smooth translucent antialiasing.
