Free Online Image Resizer

HoxTools Image Resizer is a free online tool that lets you change the width and height of JPG, PNG and WebP images. You can enter custom dimensions, maintain the original aspect ratio, select an output format and download the resized image.

What Is an Image Resizer?

An image resizer changes the pixel dimensions of an image. For example, you can resize a large photograph to a smaller width for a website, document, social media post or online form.

Image dimensions are normally expressed in pixels. Changing the dimensions can make an image larger or smaller in terms of its displayed resolution and can also affect the resulting file size.

How to Resize an Image Online

Step 1: Select an Image

Choose a JPG, PNG or WebP image from your device, or drag and drop the image into the upload area.

Step 2: Enter Width and Height

Enter the desired width and height in pixels. If the Lock aspect ratio option is enabled, changing one dimension automatically adjusts the other proportionally.

Step 3: Choose a Preset

You can also use the quick resize presets for 1920px, 1600px, 1200px, 800px or 600px widths.

Step 4: Select Output Format

Choose JPG, PNG or WebP as the output format for the resized image.

Step 5: Download the Resized Image

Click Resize Image to process the image. Once the resize operation is complete, click Download Image to save the new file.

Why Maintain the Aspect Ratio?

The aspect ratio describes the relationship between an image's width and height. Maintaining the original aspect ratio helps prevent the image from appearing stretched, squeezed or distorted after resizing.

If you need exact dimensions for a specific design or layout, you can turn off the Lock aspect ratio option and enter independent width and height values.

JPG vs PNG vs WebP

JPG

JPG is widely used for photographs and images where relatively small file sizes are useful. It uses lossy compression, so changing the quality can affect visual detail.

PNG

PNG is commonly used for graphics, screenshots and images where transparency or lossless image quality is important.

WebP

WebP is a modern image format that supports both lossy and lossless compression and can provide efficient file sizes for many web applications.

Image Resizing vs Image Compression

Image resizing changes the dimensions of an image, such as reducing its width from a large resolution to a smaller resolution. Image compression primarily focuses on reducing the amount of data stored in the image file.

The two techniques can be used together. Reducing image dimensions and selecting an appropriate output quality can often produce a smaller image file.

If your main goal is to reduce file size while keeping the image dimensions, you can also use the HoxTools Image Compressor .
