Resize your image

Your image is resized locally and never leaves your device.
What resizing means

Change the number of pixels in an image

Image Resizer creates a new copy at your chosen width and height. Smaller dimensions are useful for websites, email, and storage; larger dimensions add pixels but cannot restore detail missing from the original.

How to use it

Choose, size, and download

  1. Select or drop one supported image.
  2. Enter exact pixel dimensions or choose a scale percentage.
  3. Review the target size, resize, and download the new copy.
Pixels or percentage?

Pick the measurement that fits your task

Pixel dimensions are best for a precise requirement such as 1200 × 800. Percentage scaling is faster when you simply need half size, double size, or another proportional change.

Aspect ratio

Keep natural proportions

The aspect ratio lock is on by default. It keeps width and height in sync to prevent stretching. Unlock it only when a specific non-proportional size is intentional.

Supported formats

JPG / JPEG

Compact output for photos. Transparent areas become white.

PNG

Lossless output that preserves supported transparency.

WebP

Efficient quality-controlled output with transparency support.

Helpful answers

Image Resizer FAQs

Are my images uploaded?

No. Resizing happens locally in your browser, so the selected image never leaves your device.

Should I resize by pixels or percentage?

Use pixels when you need an exact width and height. Use percentage when you want a quick proportional scale, such as half size at 50%.

What does locking the aspect ratio do?

It keeps the original width-to-height relationship. Changing one dimension automatically updates the other so the image does not look stretched.

What happens to transparency?

PNG and WebP output can preserve transparent areas. JPG does not support transparency, so transparent areas are placed on a white background.

Why are very large dimensions blocked?

Extremely large canvases can exhaust browser memory or fail differently across devices. ToolNest limits output to 16,384 pixels per side and 64 megapixels.
