Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make my image half the original size?
To reduce your image to 50% of its original size, simply enter '50' into the percentage field and click 'Resize'. The tool will proportionally scale your image down.
Can I enlarge my photo using this tool?
Yes! You can enlarge your image. Entering a percentage greater than 100 (like 150 for a 50% increase) will make your photo bigger while maintaining its original proportions.
I need to create a thumbnail for my website, what percentage should I use?
The ideal percentage depends on the desired thumbnail size. Experiment with values between 25% and 50% to achieve the perfect fit. Start with a lower percentage and increase it until you get the desired resolution.
Does this tool distort the image when I resize it?
No, this tool resizes images proportionally. This means the image's aspect ratio is maintained, preventing any distortion or stretching. You're getting a scaled version, not a warped one.
How is this different from resizing by pixels?
Resizing by percentage maintains the image's proportions perfectly, regardless of the original dimensions. Pixel-based resizing can sometimes lead to unexpected results if you're not careful. This percentage tool ensures a clean, proportional scale every time.
