What image resizing changes

Resizing changes the pixel dimensions of an image. For example, a 4000 × 3000 photograph can be reduced to a smaller size for a website, email, or online application.

Reducing dimensions can also reduce file size because fewer pixels need to be stored.

Keep the aspect ratio

The aspect ratio describes the relationship between width and height. Keeping that ratio prevents people, objects, and logos from appearing stretched or squeezed.

When possible, change one dimension and allow the other to scale proportionally.

Choose dimensions for the destination

Use the dimensions required by the website or application where the image will be uploaded. There is usually little benefit in uploading an image many times larger than the displayed size.
