Here are some of the frequently asked question for image resizing on SmallJPG.com.
You can upload JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, Animated GIF and WebP files.
Yes — each image can be up to 30MB in size. This helps us keep the tool fast and reliable for everyone.
No — Your images are not stored permanently. They are processed temporarily and automatically deleted shortly after.
Uploaded files are usually deleted from our servers roughly 60 minutes after processing.
Yes! You can enter a custom width and/or height. If you leave one blank, we’ll automatically calculate the other and keep the original aspect ratio.

Resizing changes the dimensions (width/height) of the whole image.
Cropping cuts out a specific part of the image.
Sometimes! Smaller dimensions usually mean a smaller file size, but it's not guaranteed.
Our resizing tool aims to keep the best possible quality. If you reduce or increase the image by a lot, some quality loss may occur. If you reduce the size of the image the quality is mostly determined by the resolution of the output image. When there are not much pixels, resolution is lower. If you enlarge the image, our tool needs to create new pixels that do not exist, this also can create some artifacts.
Not usually. But if you resize upwards (making the image larger than the original), it may look blurry or pixelated if you increase the size to much. For best clarity, resize down.
Not yet, but we're working on a batch resize tool so if there is demand it will come! Stay tuned for updates.
