Convert a PNG to 3D online

How a PNG becomes a 3D object

A PNG is an image made of pixels, and to give it depth the tool needs to know its outline. Frame.lab traces that outline automatically, turns it into vector shapes and extrudes them to give them thickness and a soft bevel. The whole process happens in your browser: your file is not uploaded to any server.

Which PNGs work best

Logos with clear shapes and flat colors work best, on a transparent or single-color background. A high resolution (from around 1000 pixels) and good contrast between the logo and the background help the outline come out clean.

Photographs, complex gradients and busy backgrounds do not convert well because there is no clear outline to extrude. In those cases the editor warns you before processing.

If your logo is a vector, even better

If you have your logo as an SVG, the result is more faithful because nothing has to be traced: the curves are already defined. See how it works in our guide to converting an SVG to 3D.

Step by step

1. Open the editor and upload your PNG.
2. Adjust the depth and bevel until the shape looks right.
3. Choose a material: chrome, gold, colored metallic…
4. Add an animation if you are going to export video.
5. Export as PNG, video or 3D model.
