GPT Image 2.6 makes animated GIFs and SVGs

Two new image models, Sunburst and Flare, can make animated GIFs and editable SVG vectors as well as regular images.

Choose GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst or GPT Image 2.6 Flare in the image model picker, then pick a format: PNG for a regular image, GIF for an animation, or SVG for a vector you can edit and scale.

Animated GIFs from a prompt

  • Describe the motion and the loop, then pick GIF.
  • Set how many frames the animation has (2 to 16) and how long each frame shows.
  • GIFs play in your history and media library.

Editable vector graphics

  • Pick SVG for logos, icons, and illustrations made of real shapes and colors.
  • Use an SVG as a reference for your next image, or open it in the editor.

More control over complex images

  • A new Complexity setting sets how much the model plans before drawing. Lower suits small edits; higher helps with dense text and busy layouts.

GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst is now the default image model, and GPT Image 2.5 stays available. GIF and SVG work when you generate from a prompt; edits and reference-guided images come out as PNG.
