💡 Why use this tool?

Every platform shows pictures in a different shape. A wrong size gets cropped badly, so faces and headlines are cut.

Here you see the final shape before you save, and you decide what stays in the picture.

✨ Features at a glance

  • Ready sizes for Instagram, Facebook, X, YouTube, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and Telegram
  • Custom width and height
  • Fill (crop) or Fit (whole picture) modes
  • Blurred, coloured or transparent background for the empty space

🎯 Helpful tips

  • Keep your original photo safe and save the new image under a different name.
  • Zoom in and check the result before uploading it to a form or website.
  • JPG is best for photos. PNG is better for logos, text and sharp edges.

❓ Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Fill and Fit?

Fill covers the whole shape and crops what does not fit. Fit keeps the whole picture and fills the extra space with a background.

How do I keep a face in the picture?

Use Fill and drag the picture until the face is inside the frame. Zoom if needed.

Are the sizes official?

They are the sizes commonly used. Platforms may change their rules, so check before an important post.

Will the quality drop?

A small picture stretched to a large size looks soft. Use a picture at least as big as the size you choose.

Is my picture uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser.

Is it free?

Yes, completely free.
