How to change an image's aspect ratio
Add your images
JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF, up to 20 at once, in any mix of shapes.
Choose the shape
Click a ratio such as 16:9 or 4:5. Crop to fill keeps the largest part of each image with that shape; drag the frame in the preview to choose which part. Fit inside keeps the whole image and adds borders.
Resize and download
Each image keeps its own resolution: only its shape changes. Download them one by one or all together in a ZIP.
Common aspect ratios
The ratio is width to height: 16:9 is 16 units wide for every 9 units tall. Typical uses:
| Ratio | Typical use |
|---|---|
| 16:9 | Widescreen: YouTube thumbnails, TVs, slides |
| 3:2 | Photos from many cameras, and prints |
| 4:3 | Photos from most phones, classic screens |
| 1:1 | Square posts and profile pictures |
| 4:5 | Tall feed posts |
| 3:4 | Taller feed posts and the Instagram profile grid |
| 2:3 | Tall pins and posters |
| 9:16 | Stories, Reels and other full-screen phone formats |
Need an exact size in pixels as well, such as 1080 × 1350? Use the image resizer, which also has presets.
Aspect ratio questions
Will my image be stretched?
Never. Crop to fill cuts off what doesn't fit the shape, and Fit inside adds borders instead. Pick the colour of the borders, or make them transparent for PNG and WebP.
Does changing the ratio lower the quality?
No. The image isn't scaled, so the part you keep has exactly its original pixels. It's then saved in the format you choose.
Can I choose which part of the picture is kept?
Yes. With Crop to fill, open the preview of an image and drag the frame, or zoom in to keep a smaller part.
How do I get an exact size such as 1920 × 1080?
Change the ratio here first, or go straight to the image resizer: unlock the proportions, type both numbers, and it crops to fill the same way.
Are my images uploaded?
