# Image Resizer

ToolSugar resizes one image at a time in your browser in three ways: exact pixels up to 12000 per side, a percentage from 1 to 400, or a maximum file size in KB. For a size target it searches JPG or WebP quality first and only shrinks the picture if it must. Nothing is uploaded.

Runs on your device

## How it works

1. Add one image.
2. Choose Exact pixels, Percent or File size.
3. Enter the value, and keep or release the proportion lock.
4. Pick a format, press Resize, and download.

## Key facts

- **Modes**: Exact pixels, percent, file size in KB
- **Largest side**: 12000 pixels
- **Shape changes**: Crop to fill, add white bars, or stretch
- **KB counting**: 1 KB is treated as 1000 bytes

## Common uses

- Match the exact pixel size a job or exam portal asks for.
- Bring a phone photo under an upload limit.
- Scale artwork down by half for a blog post.

## Questions

### Can I make an image larger?

Yes, up to 400 percent or 12000 pixels per side. Enlarging only stretches the existing pixels, so it does not add real detail and the picture looks softer.

### Why does a PNG shrink so much in File size mode?

PNG has no quality setting, so the only way to reach a target is to reduce its dimensions. Choose JPG or WebP if you want to keep the width and height.

### Does it keep metadata?

No. The image is redrawn and saved fresh, so EXIF details such as camera model and GPS location are not included in the download.
