from PIL import Image

#Load the image img = Image.open('1.gif')

for a in range(1,10): img.save('' str(a) '.gif')

CodePudding user response:

If you just want to make 9 identical copies of image.gif, called copy-1.gif through copy-9.gif you don't need PIL/Pillow at all - you are just copying a file and the fact it contains an image is irrelevant, so you can simply use shutil.copy:

import shutil

# Make 9 copies of "image.gif"
for i in range(1,10):
    shutil.copy('image.gif', f'copy-{i}.gif')
