OnPhotoResizer.com you can resize, shrink, grow and crop your photos, images and pictures online, for free. Open your image and crop and resize. You can crop to pre-defined formats for Facebook, Instagram or Twitter headers or make custom crops. Save or email the resulting image, or share it on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. There are also some basic editing functions: free draw, add text, rotate, flip and draw rectangles.

Image Resizer is a Windows shell extension for bulk image-resizing. After installing PowerToys, right-click on one or more selected image files in File Explorer, and select Resize with ImageResizer from the menu.


If Ignore the orientation of pictures is selected, the width and height of the specified size may be swapped to match the orientation (portrait/landscape) of the current image. In other words: If selected, the smallest number (in width/height) in the settings will be applied to the smallest dimension of the picture. Regardless if this is declared as width or height. The idea is that different photos with different orientations will still be the same size.


The fallback encoder is used when the file cannot be saved in its original format. For example, the Windows Meta File (.wmf) image format has a decoder to read the image, but no encoder to write a new image. In this case, the image cannot be saved in its original format. Specify the format the fallback encoder will use: PNG, JPEG, TIFF, BMP, GIF, or WMPhoto settings.This is not a file type conversion tool, but only works as a fallback for unsupported file formats.


This utility is part of the Microsoft PowerToys utilities for power users. It provides a set of useful utilities to tune and streamline your Windows experience for greater productivity. To install PowerToys, see Installing PowerToys.


Hi has anyone had any trouble with the Shopify image-resizer page where you upload you images click on submit and nothing happens. I've been using this for ages now, and now the last couple goes, I've had to use other methods as nothing is happening! Have they disabled it and not bothered to close the page? If so I'll have to find other ways. I was very convenient for me!



UPDATE: Funny how after a couple of hours, the page suddenly works! Good!


I'm happy to tell you that the image re-sizer page is not being shutdown! In terms of the issues you were having, we haven't gotten any additional reports of the page misbehaving. I saw that you updated your post a bit later to let us know that the page was working normally for you. This makes me think that your browser may have had some saved data (think your cookies/cache) that was impacted the page. This data refreshes itself occasionally so that would explain why it didn't work at one time, but is back to normal for you. Google Chrome is a browser that's pretty chronic for cookies issues, for example.


In the end, I'm happy to hear the page started working for you as expected! Do you mind me asking why you were looking to resize some images? Are you working on a new store, or making some new products? If you're open to it, I'd love to take some time to explore your online store and see what you've built! One of my favourite things about the Community is having the chance to connect with folks like you to chat about your business. I'd love to have the chance to checkout what you've built - I may be able to advise on some feedback for you, too!

So I loaded up the resizer and tried to replicate this error, but things seemed to be working fine for me. This suggests that this is a local issue. A cookies/cache clear is a good first step, but can you please try these other steps for me to see if they solve things:


I keep having this problem again and again. It has happened many times and just now I have probably tried it 25 times in two different browsers (safari and chrome on mac). Is there any other way to make it work than to just wait and try again later? Appreciate any answers, thanks!


Usually, this issue is caused by browsers or devices holding into some saved data within the browsers being used to access content. We see similar things with Google Chrome and theme updates, for example. Beyond waiting for things to resolve on their own, you can try a cache and cookies clear of the browsers, or try use a private viewing window in these browsers and see if the resizer will work for you then.


The reason why time seemed to solve the issue for our OP is because these browsers and devices do eventually refresh with the most recent version of the content appearing on pages, but you can't force this to happen unless you manually clear your cache and cookies and allow for the browser to have new content to remember for faster access times in the future.


Can I ask why you were looking to resize your images? Are you updating the images for your store? If you like, you can share a link to your shop with me here and I'd be happy to take some to look around and see if I can advise you on any tips! Let me know!


For years I have used Shrink-o-Matic, but for some reason it won't load onto my brand new iMac. Is there a good batch photo resizer out there? What I liked about Shrink-o-Matic was that I could put in the parameters of, say, 1000 pixels width and 1000 pixels height, and it would choose the larger of the two dimensions and reduce the photo accordingly, and in proportion. Example: if half the photos in the batch were in landscape mode, and half were in portrait mode, it would reduce the landscape photos to 1000 pixels width, and the appropriate proportion of height pixels, rather than distorting the photo by making both width and height 1000 pixels. When I tried using Preview to batch resize, I could only do all the portrait sized pics in one batch, and the landscape sized pics in a separate batch. Just FYI, I do not use Photoshop or Lightroom for editing, so those aren't options. Can anybody help? Also, info below is wrong. I'm on a brand new iMac, Retina 4K, 2019. macOS Catalina version 10.15.2. Thank you!


Look at PhotoMill. $10. Free trial from their website. It can resize and convert formats, color spaces, etc. I use its watermarking capabilities to annotate photos (date, location, etc. from metadata) for display. Good support.


I would really like to install the nautilus right click photo re-sizer in my Ubuntu Mate 18.04. I had it in UM 16.04 and have been trying without success to get it to show up in 18.04.


In the beginning, some anonymous Microsoft engineer created the Image Resizer Powertoy for Windows XP. It was a wildly popular PowerToy that allowed you to bulk resize image files so they could all fit on your 1.44 MB floppy disk or be uploaded using you 56 kbps dial-up modem. Life was good in our plastic XP world.


Then came Windows Vista. Despite everyone telling them not to, a few brave souls decided to install the OS. When they tried to install their favorite PowerToy, they were greeted by this disappointing, but beautifully glass-framed error message:


A service pack later, my dad finally convinced my mom that it was time to upgrade to Windows Vista. He bought her agigantic, pink laptop with about an hour of batter life. Quickly, however, she noticed there was no option toresize her pictures.


Last September, Microsoft resurrected the PowerToys project, and shortly thereafter users began demanding that an image resizer be included. The Microsoft PowerToys team and I got in contact, and we decided to move Image Resizer for Windows into the PowerToys project, thus restoring it to its rightful place.


I recently switched to Affinity Photo from Photoshop, and I'm trying to recreate a macro I use when batch processing scanned photos. Part of the macro involved resizing each photo's canvas to 99% of its original size to get rid of any potential white border that appeared when scanning. I can type in a percentage in the image dimensions when resizing the canvas; however, this doesn't translate over to the macro. It instead saves the final dimensions of the image. This won't work for me since not all my images are the same size. I need it to crop by percentage relative to the dimensions of each image. This is very easy to do in Photoshop and GIMP, as they have a percentage option for canvas resizing, but I can't seem to find a way to do this in Affinity. Is there any solution to this?


I don't see how resizing would resolve your problem of white borders, as resizing the document would keep everything. Cropping would handle it, but I don't think macros can do cropping well (at all?) either.
