Image Resizer

Resize an image by pixels, percentage, or a max dimension — aspect ratio locked, formats your choice, entirely in your browser.

Browser-side · your image is resized on your device and never uploaded. Pick a resize mode, keep or unlock the aspect ratio, and choose the output format.

How this tool works

Pick a resize mode

Image Resizer supports exact width/height, max width, max height, percentage, and longest/shortest side. Max and percentage modes keep the aspect ratio automatically.

Aspect lock is two-way

With the lock on, editing either dimension recalculates the other so the image is never distorted. Turn it off for independent width and height.

Format and quality

Keep the input format or convert to JPG, PNG, or WebP. Quality applies to JPG and WebP only; PNG ignores it. JPG fills transparency with the background color.

Check the result panel

After processing, the panel shows the original dimensions, the final dimensions, the output format, and the new file size. Re-encoding removes EXIF metadata.

Image Resizer in your browser

Image Resizer changes the pixel dimensions of an image right in your browser. Pick exact width and height, a maximum width or height, a percentage, or a longest/shortest side, and the tool keeps the aspect ratio unless you turn the lock off.

Output can stay the same format as the input or convert to JPG, PNG, or WebP. The quality slider applies to JPG and WebP; PNG export ignores it in most browsers. When you choose JPG, any transparency is filled with the background color you pick, because JPG cannot store transparency.

Turn on “do not upscale” to make sure a small image is never enlarged past its original size, and check the result panel for the original and final dimensions and the new file size.

How to use Image Resizer

  1. Upload your image — click the upload area, press Enter, or drag the file onto it.
  2. Choose a resize mode in Image Resizer, then set the width, height, or percentage. With the aspect lock on, editing one dimension updates the other.
  3. In Image Resizer, pick the output format — and the quality for JPG or WebP — plus a background color when you output JPG.
  4. Click Process, check the original and final dimensions in the result panel, and download the resized image.

Why use this tool

Real resize modes

Image Resizer offers exact, max width, max height, percentage, and longest/shortest-side modes instead of a single fixed box.

Two-way aspect lock

Editing the width updates the height and editing the height updates the width, so the image never distorts.

Format you choose

Keep the original format or convert to JPG, PNG, or WebP, with an honest note that PNG ignores the quality slider.

Private by design

Your image is processed in your browser with the HTML canvas and is never uploaded to a server.

Common uses for Image Resizer

Fitting a size limit

Resize an image to the exact pixels or maximum dimension a site or form allows.

Shrinking a large photo

Scale a big camera or phone image down by percentage without enlarging it.

Preparing web images

Quick edits anywhere

Resize an image from a phone, tablet, or laptop browser with the file staying on the device.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server by Image Resizer?

No. Image Resizer runs entirely in your browser using the HTML canvas. Your image is resized on your own device and is never sent to imgtoolsbase or any server.

Does Image Resizer keep the aspect ratio?

Yes — by default Image Resizer uses a two-way aspect lock: editing the width updates the height and editing the height updates the width. Turn the lock off to set width and height independently, which can stretch the result.

Which output formats does Image Resizer support?

Image Resizer can keep the same format as the input or convert to JPG, PNG, or WebP. The quality slider applies to JPG and WebP; PNG export ignores quality in most browsers.

Will Image Resizer enlarge a small image?

Only if you ask it to. Image Resizer enlarges past the original size only when you allow it, and because that softens the image you can turn on “do not upscale” to cap the result at the original size.

When Image Resizer saves JPG, what happens to transparency?

JPG cannot store transparency, so Image Resizer fills transparent areas with the background color you choose. Use PNG or WebP if you need to keep a transparent background.
