How to make a spinning record GIF

  1. Press Choose image and pick your cover art. Square pictures fit best.
  2. Pick a style: the cover as the label, or the cover filling the record.
  3. Turn on the sleeve if you want the full cover shown behind the record.
  4. Set the speed and the size, then press Download GIF.

Record styles

Cover as the label gives you black vinyl with grooves and your cover as the round label in the middle.

Cover fills the record makes a picture disc. The cover is spread over the whole record, with the grooves on top.

In both styles the cover turns with the record, and the streaks of light stay where they are, the way they do on a real turntable.

Sleeve adds the square album sleeve with the cover on it. The record lies over the right side of the sleeve.

Spinning record settings

Speed starts close to a real LP at 33 rpm, one turn in about 1.7 seconds. The slowest setting takes 4 seconds a turn and the fastest 0.6.

Size is the longest side of the GIF: 200, 320 or 480 px. Without a sleeve the GIF is a square.

Transparent background is on by default, so only the record and the sleeve show. Turn it off to pick a solid color.

What to use a record spinning GIF for

Song and album announcements, playlist covers, a "now playing" corner on a stream, a music blog or a profile picture. The record crops wide and tall pictures to the middle, so upload the square album art when you have it.
