Overview

Why 1280×720?

1280×720 (720p, 16:9) is YouTube's recommended thumbnail size and a common baseline for HD images generally. Every image uploaded here is redrawn onto a canvas at exactly 1280×720, stretched to fill the frame if its original proportions differ.

Why this runs entirely in your browser

Resizing uses the browser's own Canvas API to redraw the image at the new dimensions locally, so the original file never leaves the device — no upload, no server-side processing.

Common uses

Preparing an image for a specific platform's exact size requirement, shrinking a photo to fit a website's max width, or scaling a batch of screenshots down for a document.
