How it works
Pick a platform with the quick buttons at the top; the resize setting is applied for you. The default mode is “Fill and crop”: the image is scaled to cover the target size and whatever overflows is cut from the centre. If nothing may be cut, choose “Fit and add padding (px)” in the Size section to add colour or blurred padding instead.
Common sizes
| Use | Size (px) |
|---|---|
| Instagram square post | 1080 × 1080 |
| Instagram portrait post (4:5) | 1080 × 1350 |
| Instagram Stories and Reels (9:16) | 1080 × 1920 |
| YouTube video thumbnail | 1280 × 720 |
| X (Twitter) post image | 1600 × 900 |
| Facebook link/share image | 1200 × 630 |
| LinkedIn share image | 1200 × 627 |
Note: platforms change their recommended sizes from time to time. These are commonly used values; before an important publication check the platform’s own help page. For platforms with a file-size limit use the “Target file size” option. To make a square without cropping see make image square.
