A better starting point
Resize a photo for Facebook without fighting the crop
Facebook may display the same image differently in the feed, a shared link, or a preview. A wide 1200 × 630 image is a dependable starting point for link-style graphics and landscape posts. Upload your image above, then choose whether to crop the edges or fit the entire image inside the frame.
Keep important text away from the edges. Facebook previews can vary by placement and device, so leave a little breathing room around faces, logos, and headlines.
What size should I use for a Facebook image?
For a wide shared image or link-style graphic, 1200 × 630 is a practical starting size. You can also enter any exact dimensions required by a specific placement.

Useful for real-life nonsense
When a website rejects a perfectly good image
Online forms and social platforms love mysterious requirements: “under 2 MB,” “exactly 1200 by 630,” “square images only,” or “unsupported file type.” This tool handles those chores without forcing you into a complicated editor.

Things you may reasonably wonder
Does my image get uploaded?
No. The browser reads and processes the image on your device. The site does not need to receive or store it.
Will this remove photo metadata?
Yes. Exporting through the browser canvas creates a new image without the original EXIF metadata, including most camera and location information.
Can I make an image exactly 2 MB?
The tool can aim for a maximum size, but image compression is not perfectly exact. It will usually produce a file at or below the target.
Why did my transparent image get a background?
JPG files do not support transparency. Choose PNG or WebP to preserve a transparent background.
Can this enlarge a small image?
Yes, after you enable “Allow enlarging.” Enlarging can make an image look softer because the browser cannot invent missing detail.
