Common sizes
Resize or compress?
Resize changes how wide and tall the picture is. Use this when a site, email, or form wants a certain size.
Compress makes the file weigh less (fewer megabytes) while the picture can stay the same size on screen.
Phone photos are often far larger than you need. Shrinking the width first is usually the easiest way to get a lighter file. If a form says “max 2 MB,” use Fit an upload limit instead.
Named sizes live on their own pages: Instagram post, Instagram story, TikTok, YouTube thumbnail, Etsy listing, OG image, or print size / DPI. Need a crop by hand? Photasium, then come back.
How to do it
- Drop your photos here. They stay on your phone or computer.
- Set a max width, a max height, or both: whichever the photo should not exceed. You can also scale by percent.
- Download the resized pictures.
Tips
- Making a small photo bigger will not make it sharper.
- For a website, 1200 to 1920 pixels wide is enough for most photos.
- Need Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, OG, or Etsy sizes? Use the common sizes row, or open those job pages.
