Resize Guide for Web and Social Images
Resizing changes the pixel dimensions of an image. It is best when an image is physically larger than you need, such as a 4000px camera photo that will only be shown at 1200px on a website.
| Goal | Suggested setting | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Website hero image | Max width 1600px | Keeps detail while reducing load time. |
| Blog inline image | Max width 1000-1200px | Fits most content columns without excess pixels. |
| Email attachment | Scale 50% | Quickly reduces dimensions and file size. |
| Thumbnail | Max width 300-600px | Creates smaller previews for cards and lists. |
Quality note
Resize first, then compress if needed. Shrinking dimensions often saves more file size than aggressive compression and keeps the image looking cleaner.

FAQ
Do you upload my images?
No. Resizing runs locally in your browser (client-side). Your files are not uploaded.
How do I resize by percent?
Select “Scale by percent”, enter a percent value (e.g., 50), then click Apply Resize.
How do I resize by max width?
Select “Limit by max width”, set the width in pixels (e.g., 1200), then click Apply Resize.
Can I resize multiple images at once?
Yes. Add multiple files, apply one set of options, and download individually or as a ZIP.
Is there a file size limit?
Limits depend on your device memory and browser, since processing is local.
