Resize Image by Percentage

Scale an image up or down by a percentage of its original size — with a no-upscale option, entirely in your browser.

Browser-side · enter a percentage and the tool scales both sides by that amount. 100% keeps the size; 50% halves each side.

How this tool works

Enter a percentage

Below 100 shrinks the image, above 100 enlarges it. Both sides scale by the same amount so proportions are preserved.

Avoid blurry upscales

Enlarging past 100% loses sharpness; turn on “do not upscale” to cap the output at the original size.

Format and quality

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

Read the result panel

It reports the final pixel dimensions and file size so you know exactly what the percentage produced.

Resize Image by Percentage in your browser

Resize Image by Percentage scales an image relative to its current size instead of to fixed pixel dimensions. Enter 50% to halve each side, 200% to double it, or any value in between, and the proportions are always kept.

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. JPG fills any transparency with the background color you choose.

Turn on “do not upscale” so a percentage above 100% will not enlarge the image past its original size, and read the result panel for the final pixel dimensions and the new file size.

How to use Resize Image by Percentage

  1. Upload the image you want to scale — click the upload area, press Enter, or drag it in.
  2. Enter a percentage — below 100 to shrink, above 100 to enlarge (unless “do not upscale” is on).
  3. Choose the output format and, for JPG or WebP, the quality and background color.
  4. Click Process, check the resulting pixel dimensions in the result panel, and download the scaled image.

Why use this tool

Proportional scaling

Scale by a percentage so the image keeps its exact proportions without working out pixel dimensions yourself.

No-upscale guard

Prevent a percentage above 100% from enlarging and softening a small image.

Format you choose

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

Private by design

The image is scaled in your browser and never uploaded to a server.

Common uses for Resize Image by Percentage

Quick uniform shrink

Halve or quarter an image with one percentage instead of calculating new pixel sizes.

Matching a relative size

Scale a set of images to the same percentage so they shrink consistently.

Reducing upload weight

Scale a large photo down by percentage to make it lighter to upload or email.

Any-device scaling

Scale an image from a phone, tablet, or computer browser with the file staying local.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server by Resize Image by Percentage?

No. The image is scaled in your browser using the HTML canvas and is never uploaded to imgtoolsbase or any server.

How does percentage scaling work here?

The percentage is applied to both the width and the height, so the image keeps its proportions. 50% halves each side; 200% doubles each side.

Can I stop it from enlarging a small image?

Yes. Turn on “do not upscale” and any percentage above 100% is capped at the original size to avoid blurring.

Which formats can I output?

Keep the same format as the input or convert to JPG, PNG, or WebP. Quality applies to JPG and WebP; PNG export ignores the quality slider.

What does the result panel show?

It shows the original dimensions, the scaled percentage, the final pixel dimensions, the output format, and the new file size.
