Verified dimensions
1080×1350 Instagram Portrait, 1280×720 YouTube Thumbnail, 1584×396 LinkedIn Banner - the real numbers.

Cross-posting efficiency
Run one source through multiple presets in a single session.
JPG/PNG output
JPG for photos, PNG when graphics need crispness.

Presets for every surface
Why platform-exact sizes matter
Algorithmic presentation
Correctly sized media renders full-bleed; mis-sized media gets awkwardly cropped by feeds.
Professional consistency
Profiles with uniform, intentional imagery read as credible instantly.
Time reclaimed
Remembering eleven dimension specs is what computers are for.
Privacy bonus
Scheduling tools demand account access; a resizer shouldn't need any.
The hidden cost of wrong-sized social images
Platforms don't reject wrongly-sized images - they silently crop them according to their own center-weighted rules. Your carefully composed photograph becomes an accidental close-up of a elbow. The image 'works', which is exactly why the problem persists unnoticed.
Each platform maintains canonical dimensions that its interfaces assume. Instagram's feed renders 4:5 portrait tallest, claiming the most screen area. YouTube thumbnails live or die at 1280×720 where text must survive thumbnail-scale rendering. LinkedIn's banner crops differently on desktop versus mobile, rewarding conservative composition within 1584×396.
The craft response is preparing per-platform variants rather than broadcasting one master file everywhere. It sounds laborious until the entire workflow collapses into selecting presets and clicking download - which is precisely what this tool reduces it to.
“Client onboarding used to mean memorizing spec sheets. Now it's picking buttons.”
Jessica Wang - Freelance social manager
“Episode artwork goes to four platforms weekly; preset workflow cut prep from an hour to minutes.”
Ibrahim Traore - Podcast producer
“Food photos finally stop getting decapitated by Story cropping since I started using the vertical preset.”

Frequently asked questions
Which platforms and sizes are included?
Instagram (post, portrait, story, profile), YouTube (thumbnail, banner), Facebook (cover, post, profile), and LinkedIn (banner, post, profile).
What does crop-to-fill do?
It scales your image until it completely covers the target dimensions, then center-crops the overflow - no bars, no distortion.
When should I use pad-to-fit instead?
When nothing can be cropped - diagrams, text-heavy graphics, product shots where edges matter.
Are these the official platform dimensions?
Yes, they reflect each platform's published recommendations as of 2026. Platforms occasionally tweak specs; presets track current guidance.
Do I need to connect my social accounts?
Never. The tool only touches your local files - no logins or API permissions involved.
Can I process one image for multiple platforms?
Absolutely - select a preset, download, pick the next preset, repeat. The source stays loaded.
