Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data safe?
Yes. All processing happens entirely in your browser. Your data never leaves your device and is never uploaded to any server.
How does the cropping work?
The tool uses center-crop: your image is scaled so the shortest dimension fits the target size, then the excess on the longer dimension is trimmed equally from both sides. This preserves the center of the image, which is usually the most important part.
What platforms are supported?
Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Pinterest — with presets for posts, cover photos, profile pictures, stories, and thumbnails for each platform.
Will the resized image look blurry if my source image is small?
Scaling an image to larger dimensions than its original size (upscaling) reduces quality and can produce a blurry result. For best results, start with an image at least as large as the target dimensions.
Do social platforms crop the image after I upload it?
Each platform displays images differently in different contexts. A profile photo may appear as a square in some places and a circle in others. Instagram automatically crops posts that are not the expected ratio. This tool ensures your image starts at the correct dimensions, giving you the most control over how it appears.

Common Use Cases

Profile photo optimization

Resize a portrait or headshot to the exact dimensions required for Twitter profiles (400x400), Facebook profiles (170x170), or LinkedIn profiles (400x400).

Cover image preparation

Prepare cover photos for Facebook (820x312), Twitter/X (1500x500), LinkedIn company pages (1128x191), or YouTube channels (2560x1440) without cropping manually in an editor.

Instagram post sizing

Resize photos to Instagram square (1080x1080), portrait (1080x1350), or landscape (1080x566) before uploading to avoid Instagram's automatic compression cropping.

Content calendar batch preparation

When posting the same content across multiple platforms, resize the same source image to each platform's required dimensions for a consistent visual appearance.

Tips & Best Practices
  • 💡Always start with the highest resolution version of your image. Resizing down preserves quality; scaling up from a low-resolution source produces blurry results.
  • 💡For profile photos, use a high-contrast image where your face or logo is centered — center-crop works best when the main subject is already in the middle.
  • 💡Instagram story and TikTok video dimensions are 1080x1920 (9:16 portrait). Make sure your image or video fills the full vertical frame.
  • 💡After resizing, platforms apply their own compression when you upload. Starting with a larger, higher-quality image helps preserve visual quality after platform compression.
How It Compares

Social media management tools like Buffer, Hootsuite, and Canva include image resizing for their supported platforms, but they require accounts and are tied to their publishing workflows. Photo editors like Photoshop require manual canvas resizing. This standalone tool is faster for one-off resizing tasks — no account, no monthly subscription, and your image never leaves your device.
