How to resize an image

This free image resizer changes the width and height of JPEG, PNG and WebP files. Use it when you need exact pixel dimensions, a percentage reduction or a consistent longest or shortest side for a group of photographs.

  1. Choose a JPEG, PNG or WebP image.
  2. Select exact dimensions, a percentage, the longest side or the shortest side.
  3. Keep aspect ratio enabled to avoid stretching the image.
  4. Choose the output format and JPEG/WebP quality if needed.
  5. Resize, review the result and download it.

Four useful ways to resize an image

Method Example Useful when
Exact dimensions 1920 × 1280 px You already know the pixel dimensions you need.
Percentage 50% You simply want the image to be half its original width and height.
Longest side 1920 px You want landscape and portrait images to fit inside the same maximum size.
Shortest side 1200 px You need the shorter edge to reach a specific size in either orientation.

High-quality image resizing

Large images are reduced progressively in multiple browser-canvas steps before the final dimensions are rendered. This avoids relying on one very large scaling jump. The tool also requests high-quality image smoothing where the browser supports it.

Resize vs. compress

Resizing changes the pixel dimensions of an image. For example, a 6000 × 4000 photo can become 1920 × 1280. Compression is a different task: it aims to reduce file size while keeping the pixel dimensions unchanged. A dedicated image compressor is better when you want the same width and height but fewer kilobytes.

Which format should I choose?

  • JPEG: a practical choice for photographs without transparency.
  • PNG: lossless output and transparency, but often larger for photos.
  • WebP: useful for modern web images with lossy or transparent output.

Privacy

The image resizer is free to use and does not need an image upload endpoint. The selected file is decoded, resized and encoded by browser APIs on the user's device. The production JavaScript contains no network request API and no local storage, cookie or telemetry logic.

Frequently asked questions

Is this image resizer free?

Yes. You can resize supported images and download the result without an account or subscription.

Which image formats can I resize?

The resizer accepts JPEG, PNG and WebP images and can export the result in any of those three formats.

How do I resize without stretching the image?

Keep aspect ratio enabled. Changing one dimension will then update the other dimension proportionally.

Will resizing always make the file smaller?

No. File size also depends on the output format, quality setting and image content. Reducing pixel dimensions usually helps, but it is not a guarantee.

Is my image uploaded?

No. Decoding, resizing and export run locally in your browser.
