How to resize an image for social media
Add your picture
Drop it above or choose it. A JPG, PNG or WebP works.
Pick the size
Choose where the picture goes. The sketch shows the part that is kept, and you can drag it.
Resize and save
Press Resize and download the result. Your original is untouched.
What stays and what doesn't
The result is a new file in the same format. These are the things that do not come along to it:
- camera and capture details such as make, model and date taken
- the GPS location
- titles, authors, keywords and comments
- the small preview stored inside the file
- content credentials and edit history (C2PA)
- the embedded colour profile (colours are changed to sRGB first; very saturated colours can look slightly flatter)
- the stored print resolution
- other data stored in or after the picture, such as a motion-photo clip, program-specific blocks or a modification time
A JPEG or WebP saved again loses a little detail.
When it won't run
Two things stop a run before it writes anything, and each is said on the file's row. A file that cannot be read is reported as damaged, and a picture too large for this device says so, with the limit. In both cases nothing is changed and your original stays as it was. A file in a format the page does not take, such as a GIF, gets a sentence instead of a row.
- The picture is an animation. This tool would keep only the first frame, so it leaves the file alone.
- The picture stores its colours as CMYK. This tool can't change it without altering the colours.
- The picture stores 16 bits per colour. This tool works in 8 bits and would flatten it, so it leaves the file alone.
- The picture is already that size.
Resizing for social media: what to expect
Fill cuts the largest part of your picture that has the shape of the size you chose, and draws it at exactly that size. Nothing is stretched. Drag the frame on the sketch, or use the arrow keys, to choose which part stays. Fit keeps the whole picture instead and pads the rest with a colour you pick.
A picture smaller than the size is made larger, and the line under the settings tells you when that is more than double, because a picture stretched that far can look soft. A JPG or a WebP is saved again at a quality that is never lower than a good photograph needs, and a PNG is saved without any loss.
The list of sizes is ours, read against each network's own pages and the guides people use, and it was last checked in the month shown beside it. Networks change their sizes without notice, and they often resize a picture again after you post it. Only the YouTube sizes were taken from the network's own page. If an exact size matters, check the network.
Questions
Are my pictures uploaded?
No. Your pictures are processed inside your browser, on your own phone or computer, and saved straight from this page. The reading at the top of the page counts every byte sent, and it stays at 0 B.
Is the picture sent anywhere?
No. It is read and changed on your device, and nothing is uploaded.
Are these the exact sizes each network wants?
They are the sizes the networks and the common guides give, last compared with their pages in the month shown on the page. Only the YouTube sizes come from the network's own page. Sizes change, so check the network if the exact size matters.
What is the difference between fill and fit?
Fill cuts away part of the picture so it covers the whole size. Fit keeps the whole picture and adds a plain colour where it does not reach the edges.
Does it keep the camera details and the location?
No. The result is a new file with only the picture in it, so the camera details, the location and the colour profile are left behind.
