Resize an image online
Scale photos down to the exact size you need — for the web, email or thumbnails. Resizing runs in your browser, so files stay private.
How to resize an image
Resize an image to a specific width
The resizer works on the long edge of the photo, the wider side of a landscape shot or the taller side of a portrait one. Pick Full for 1920 pixels, Web for 1200, Email for 800 or Thumb for 600, and every image in the batch is scaled so its long edge matches, with the other side following in proportion. Nothing is stretched or squashed, and the shape of the photo stays exactly as it was.
Working on the long edge means a mixed batch of portrait and landscape photos comes out consistent: none of them ends up bigger than the size you chose in either direction. If you need an exact width and height, such as a square profile picture, crop to the right shape first with the crop tool, then resize.
Downsize images for the web
Downsizing is where most of the savings on a website come from. A photo straight from a phone is often several thousand pixels across, while the column it sits in on a page is rarely wider than 1200. The browser still downloads every one of those extra pixels and then throws them away, which slows the page and burns mobile data for no visible gain.
Resizing to Web, 1200 pixels, removes that waste before the photo ever reaches your site. If you also want a lighter file format, convert the resized photos to WebP afterwards; the two steps together usually give a far smaller file than either one alone. The resizer only ever scales down, so small images you add by mistake are left at their original size rather than blown up.
Which size to pick
Full, 1920 pixels, matches a typical laptop or monitor at full screen and is a good choice for photos people may open large, such as a portfolio or a photo-heavy blog post. Web, 1200 pixels, fits nearly every website content column and is the default on this page. Email, 800 pixels, is sharp on a phone or laptop screen and small enough that many photos fit in one message. Thumb, 600 pixels, is for previews, product grids and anywhere the image is shown small.
If you are unsure, pick the smallest size that still fills the space where the image will appear. You can run the same originals through again at a different size at any time, since your source files are never changed.
As a rough guide to file size, halving the long edge leaves about a quarter of the pixels, so the file usually shrinks by far more than half. That is why resizing a photo for email or the web saves so much more than compression alone.
Resize photos online without uploading
Most online resizers send your photos to a server, resize them there and send them back. This one does the work inside your browser, using your own device, so the photos never travel anywhere. That matters for family pictures, ID scans and anything you would not post publicly, and it also means there is no upload wait: a batch of up to 30 photos is resized as fast as your device can manage.
