About Image Resizer

Resize images by width and height. Use it when you need the result without the overhead of opening a larger application. For anything important, compare the output with your source and keep the original until you are satisfied with the result.

Editorial note

Resize to the size you will actually display

Large camera images are often far bigger than a website, document or message needs. Reducing pixel dimensions can save more bytes than aggressive compression while keeping the image visually clean.

Keep the aspect ratio locked for ordinary photos. If width and height are changed independently, faces, circles and logos can stretch. Upscaling also has limits: more pixels do not recreate missing detail.

A realistic example

If a 4000×3000 photo will appear at about 1200 pixels wide, a 1200×900 copy is a sensible starting point before compression.

When this tool is not the right fit

If you need to recover detail from a tiny source image, simple resizing is not the same as true image restoration.

Quick answer
