# Resize Image to 30 KB

ToolSugar brings an image to at or under 30 KB, or 30000 bytes, without uploading it. At this size a headshot or simple photo can often stay reasonably clear, especially once it is around 400 to 600 pixels wide. The tool searches JPG quality first and shows the final dimensions on the result.

Runs on your device

## How it works

1. Add one JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC image.
2. Check that the target says 30 KB, or type a different limit.
3. Press Resize and let the tool search for the best quality that fits.
4. Read the size and dimensions on the result, then download it.

## Key facts

- **Target**: At or under 30 KB, counted as 30000 bytes
- **Output**: JPG by default, with PNG and WebP available
- **Where it runs**: In your browser, with no upload

## Common uses

- Add a profile picture to a site with a small upload limit.
- Send a light image inside a chat or support ticket.
- Prepare a small photo for a college or scholarship form.

## Questions

### Should I crop before resizing to 30 KB?

Yes, if the subject is small in the frame. Fewer unneeded pixels means more of the 30 KB goes to the part that matters, such as a face.

### Will the file really be under the limit?

Yes. The tool measures every encoded attempt in bytes and only returns one at or below 30000 bytes. If nothing usable fits, you get an error instead of an oversized file.

### Does it change the width and height?

Only when it has to. It lowers JPG or WebP quality first, and the picture shrinks only if quality alone cannot reach the target. The result shows the final dimensions.
