Resize image

Set the exact pixel width and height a form asks for — the "photo must be 200 x 230 pixels" instruction that is otherwise impossible to follow on a phone. It runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded, and there is no sign-up or watermark.

This tool runs in your browser, not on our server. Your file is never uploaded, and it is gone when you close the page.

The common sizes are one tap: 200 × 230 and 140 × 160 for a photo, 300 × 300 for a square avatar, or a 1600-pixel bound for a "maximum size" rule. The proportions are locked by default, so a face does not come out stretched — turn the lock off when a form demands exact dimensions and you have already cropped to suit.

A JPG stays a JPG, a PNG stays a PNG and a WebP stays a WebP, so a signature with a transparent background is not flattened onto white and a format the form asked for is not silently changed. The tool never enlarges an image — adding pixels adds file size without adding any detail — and it tells you when your request was larger than the original or too big for the browser to draw.

How to resize an image

  1. Open your image. The current pixel size is read and filled in for you, so you are changing a real number rather than guessing.

  2. Set the size you need. Tap a common size, or type your own. With the lock on, the other box follows automatically and the ratio is kept.

  3. Resize and download. The result shows the final pixel size, and says if it had to fit the proportions or could not enlarge the photo.

Frequently asked questions

How do I resize a photo to 200 x 230 pixels?

Open the photo, tap the 200 × 230 button, and press Resize image. That preset is unticked from the aspect lock so you get exactly 200 by 230 — crop the photo to roughly a 4:5 shape first if a face looks squashed. Type any other pair of numbers into the width and height boxes the same way.

Will resizing stretch my photo?

Not while "Keep the original proportions" is ticked — the image is fitted inside the size you asked for rather than squashed into it, so one side may come out a little smaller to hold the shape. Untick it only when a form insists on exact dimensions and you have already cropped the photo to suit.

What size in pixels is a 3.5 x 4.5 cm passport photo?

It depends on the dots-per-inch the portal expects. At 300 DPI, which most Indian recruitment sites assume, 3.5 × 4.5 cm is 413 × 531 pixels; at 200 DPI it is 276 × 354. Check the notice for the pixel figure and type that into the boxes here — the tool works in pixels, which is the only measurement a browser can resize to exactly.

Can I make an image bigger?

No, and that is deliberate. Enlarging adds pixels without adding detail: the result looks worse and the file gets bigger, which is the opposite of what these forms want. If you ask for a size larger than the original, the tool keeps it at its real size and tells you. To meet a minimum-width rule, retake the photo at a higher resolution.

My photo came back a different size from what I typed. Why?

With "Keep the original proportions" on, the tool fits your image inside the width and height you gave rather than stretching it to fill both, so one side comes out smaller to hold the shape. The result shows the exact pixels you got. If a form insists on both numbers exactly, untick that box — crop the photo to roughly the right shape first so the untick does not squash a face.

What is the difference between resizing and compressing?

Resizing changes the dimensions in pixels; compressing changes the file size in KB. A form that says "200 x 230 pixels" wants this tool. One that says "under 50 KB" wants Compress image. Some ask for both — resize here first, then compress the result.

Is my photo uploaded to resize it?

No. The image is decoded and redrawn by your own browser, and it never leaves your device. There is no server to receive it and nothing is stored — closing the page is enough. That matters with a photo or signature headed for a government application.
