Use cases

When to resize first

Shrinking the canvas often saves more than over-editing quality settings. Resize first for cleaner, more predictable output.

  • Social & ads

    Match what the platform asks for so crops and previews don’t surprise you.

  • Sites & email

    Keep heroes and inline images under your layout width so the page doesn’t jump, and under attachment limits when you’re emailing.

  • Listings

    Run one width or preset across a folder so every listing lines up in the grid.

How to resize an image

Open a file, set the output size, download when it looks right. The editor keeps the image in your browser.

  1. 1
    Click Select images or drag files into the upload area above.
  2. 2
    Enter your target size or pick a preset. Keep aspect ratio on unless you want a stretched look.
  3. 3
    When the preview looks right, download from the editor.

Questions

Making it smaller usually still looks sharp. Making it bigger invents pixels; you’ll see softness or blockiness no matter which app you use. We resample with a decent filter so enlarging isn’t worse than it needs to be.

Leave aspect ratio locked: change width and height tracks along. Turn the lock off only when you deliberately want a squashed or stretched frame.

Examples people still reach for: 1080×1350 portrait posts (Instagram-style), 1280×720 for YouTube thumbs, 1584×396 for a LinkedIn banner. Platforms change specs sometimes, so double-check their help pages if something gets rejected.

In the editor you can load many files and apply the same width/height or preset to each. Good when every product photo needs the same long edge.
