Image resizing guide

What is image resizing?

Image resizing changes the pixel width and height of a picture. Reducing dimensions can make an image easier to publish, share, and display responsively, while enlarging creates more pixels for a required canvas size. Kivrum redraws the image locally with high-quality browser interpolation and never uploads the source file.

How to resize an image

  1. 1. Add a JPG, PNG, WebP, or browser-supported BMP image.
  2. 2. Enter dimensions, choose a percentage, or apply a ready preset.
  3. 3. Select the output format, resize, compare, and download.

Resize vs compress

Resizing changes the number of pixels in an image. Compression changes how those pixels are encoded to reduce file size. A smaller canvas often produces a smaller file, but output format, quality, transparency, and image detail also affect the final size.

Best image sizes for popular platforms

Platform layouts change over time, so confirm current publishing requirements before a campaign. These practical presets cover widely used canvas sizes and are ready inside the resizer.

Image resizing for website optimization

Serve images close to their rendered dimensions instead of asking a browser to shrink oversized originals. Matching the content area reduces unnecessary pixel data, while JPG or WebP quality controls can further reduce photographic files. Keep PNG when lossless detail or transparency is important, and test the result at the size visitors will actually see.

Avoid oversized assets

Resize source images to the largest dimensions your layout needs.

Preserve proportions

Keep aspect ratio enabled to prevent accidental stretching.

Choose the right format

Use JPG or WebP for photos and PNG for lossless graphics or transparency.

Private, local image resizing

Your image is resized locally in your browser and is never uploaded. Canvas drawing, preview generation, and download creation stay on your device, and temporary object URLs are released when they are replaced or no longer needed.

Image resizer FAQ

Which image formats can I resize?

You can resize JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, and BMP files when your browser can decode the BMP variant.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Your image is resized locally with your browser's Canvas APIs and is never uploaded.

What is the difference between resizing and compressing?

Resizing changes pixel dimensions. Compressing mainly changes how efficiently image data is stored, often without changing width or height.

Can I preserve the original proportions?

Yes. Maintain aspect ratio is enabled by default and automatically updates the other custom dimension.

Can I resize an image for social media?

Yes. One-click presets cover common Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, Open Graph, X, and other image sizes.

Why is the quality slider hidden for PNG?

PNG export uses lossless browser encoding and does not use the JPG or WebP quality setting.

What happens to transparency with JPG?

JPG cannot store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with white during export.
