What is Resize Image

Last reviewed:

Resizing changes an image's pixel dimensions. Downscaling reduces file size and is used for thumbnails and web delivery; upscaling enlarges an image at the cost of softness.

Resize Image offers precise pixel inputs, 25/50/75/100% quick presets, and an aspect-ratio lock so the image never gets stretched or squished.

Why use it

  • Hit an exact pixel size for a social post, OG image, or email header.
  • Shrink large photos before email or upload to reduce file size.
  • Scale up for print with high-quality browser resampling.
  • No upload required — your image stays local.

Features

  • Pixel or percent inputs
  • Lock aspect ratio switch
  • High-quality browser resampling
  • PNG and JPG export
  • Live preview
  • Resampling runs locally in your browser

How to use Resize Image

  1. Upload. Drop an image into the workspace.
  2. Enter new size. Type width/height or click a 25/50/75/100% preset.
  3. Export. Click Download to save PNG or JPG.

Common errors

Image looks stretched

Typing only a width or height without the aspect lock distorts the image.

Fix: Keep Lock Aspect Ratio on and adjust either dimension — the other follows automatically.

Upscale looks blurry

Enlarging past the source resolution can never add detail.

Fix: Keep upscales under 200% for acceptable results; for large enlargements, use an AI upscaler.

FAQ

Is my image uploaded?

No. Resizing is done locally using the browser's high-quality image smoothing.

What resampling algorithm is used?

The browser's built-in `imageSmoothingQuality: 'high'`, which is typically a bicubic-like filter.

Can I resize by percent?

Yes — the 25/50/75/100% buttons scale both dimensions instantly.

Does it preserve transparency?

Yes, when you export as PNG. JPG flattens transparency to white.
