About this tool

The percentage is already set to 50%. Width and height are halved, leaving a quarter of the pixels and usually a much smaller file — a quick way to shrink many photos.

Resize images in bulk by pixels or percentage, with or without keeping the aspect ratio. High-quality Pica resampling keeps downscaled images sharp, and processing can be cancelled at any time.

How to use

  1. Upload images, choose pixels or percentage and a resampling method, and set aspect-ratio behavior.

  2. Process, check dimensions and sizes, then download files individually or as a ZIP.

Example

For example, set a 2,400 px wide image to 1,200 px wide and leave height blank to keep its aspect ratio. With both dimensions, the image fits inside the box by default; disable aspect ratio to use those exact dimensions.

Good to know

Pica resampling can be cancelled. With aspect ratio enabled, width and height define a bounding box; disabling it allows stretching. Input/output: up to 45 MP and 16384 px per side.

Choose Pica resampling or a faster browser resize. Input/output is capped at 45 MP and 16384 px per side. Use Image cropper to keep only part of the image.

Frequently asked questions

Will the result look blurry?

High-quality resampling keeps downscaled images sharp.

Can I use another percentage?

Yes, enter any value from 1% to 400%.

How are width and height used with aspect ratio on?

They form a bounding box; each image scales proportionally to fit inside it without distortion. Turn the option off to stretch to exact dimensions.
