How do I resize my images?

When you upload images direct from your camera to your website, they’re often really large in size and take a considerably long time to load on your website.

I Love IMG Logo

The “Resize IMAGE” button will give you the option to resize your JPG, PNG, SVG and GIF images for your business logo or the top banner image on your Micropage.

Step 1 To Resize An Image

Step 2: Click on “Select images”

Click the “Select images” button to choose images from your computer or you can simply drag and drop the image on the page and it will upload.

Step 2 To Resize An Image

Step 3: Resize The Image(s)

Using the width and height settings, you can adjust the size of your image and keeping the proportions in scale with the size of your image to get the best resizing.

Each image will need to be selected individually to make these settings.
It’s best to start with the width that you like the image resized to and the ILoveIMG website will rescale the height to suit this sizing change.

Step 3 To Resize An Image

There is an option to resize the image by percentage if you know the percentage that you would like to shrink or grow your image by.

Please Note: If you have a smaller image and try to make it larger it may result in pixelation. The only way to get the best result it to start with a larger image and then scale down.

Step 4: Download The Image(s)

The image(s) will automatically download to your downloads folder on your computer. If this hasn’t happened automatically click the “Download resized IMAGES” button to manually download the image(s).

Step 4 To Resize An Image

Find out the size of your image

Right click on the image and then select “Properties”.

The size is normally shown in KB which is kilobytes, This is a great size for and image for web. If the image is shown in MB which is Megabytes it may be too large and needs to be compressed or resized.

How do I compress my large images?

Once your image has been resized you can compress the image to make it much smaller to allow your website to load faster.
The smaller the kb or mb size of the image the faster the website will load for the end user.

Please note: This website will allow 20 images per day for free to compress the size of your images.
Once again this is an optional task but highly recommended if you have the time to make your image file sizes smaller.
