Does changing pixels change the file size?

Yes, drastically. If you reduce an image from 4000x3000 to 800x600, you are removing millions of pixels, which will significantly reduce the file size (MB).

What is DPI and does it matter for web?

DPI (Dots Per Inch) matters for printing, but not for screens. Screens only care about pixel dimensions (width x height). This tool adjusts pixels, which is exactly what you need for web and social media.

Can I make images larger without quality loss?

Generally, no. Upscaling adds pixels that weren't there before, which can make the image look blurry or pixelated. This tool uses smart smoothing to minimize this, but downscaling is always cleaner than upscaling.

What is the best size for a website hero image?

A standard hero image usually looks best at 1920px wide. For full-screen 4K monitors, you might use 2560px, but 1920px is the industry standard balance between quality and speed.

Does this support transparent PNGs?

Yes! If you upload a transparent PNG and resize it, the transparency is perfectly preserved (unless you convert it to JPG, which doesn't support transparency).

Social Media & Profile Pics

Every platform has strict requirements. Instagram stories need 1080x1920. LinkedIn banners need 1584x396. Use this tool to crop or resize your images to the exact pixel perfect dimensions so they don't get auto-cropped awkwardly.

Email Signatures & Documents
