Lock or unlock aspect ratio

Hit Resize Image. Preview the result. Download it. Done.
When do you need to resize an image?
More often than you'd think. Your phone takes photos at 12 megapixels or more, which is great for printing but complete overkill for a website, an email, or a profile photo. A 4000px wide image on a website that displays it at 800px wide is wasting bandwidth and slowing your page down for no reason.
Social media platforms also have specific size requirements. Instagram wants square images at 1080x1080. Twitter thumbnails work best at 1200x675. LinkedIn posts perform better at 1200x627. If you just upload whatever size you have, the platform crops it for you — usually badly.
Forms and upload fields sometimes have strict size limits too. A government form that only accepts files under 2MB won't tell you to resize the image, it'll just reject it. Resize first, upload second.
Pixels vs percentage: which should you use?
Use pixels when you have a specific target size in mind. "I need this image to be 1200px wide." Type 1200.
Use percentage when you just want to make the image smaller without caring about the exact final dimensions. "I need this image to be half the size." Set 50%.
