When to use this tool

Enter the target pixel width and height. Keep aspect ratio locked for proportional resizing unless the intended shape requires a crop first.

A practical example

Resize an 800 × 600 image to 400 × 300 to preserve its original 4:3 proportions.

Check the exported result

Check the saved file’s exact pixel dimensions and confirm circles and faces are not stretched.

Common problems and limits

Increasing dimensions cannot recreate missing original detail. A required aspect ratio should normally be achieved by cropping, not distortion.

Choose the next step

Crop Image changes the composition before you set the final size.

Files, privacy and saving

This tool offers browser processing for the supported operation. Check the selected processing mode before continuing; server options require an explicit upload choice. Keep your original, review the downloaded result and choose a clear filename before sharing it. The privacy policy explains the processing approach.
