Social-media sizing guide

Choose the right social-media image size

Choose social media image sizes and aspect ratios for each placement instead of letting a platform decide the crop after upload.

Can I resize one image for all social media platforms?

You can select several ready-made sizes from one original and adjust every version separately. The seven templates cover square, portrait, tall portrait, Story or Status, Pinterest, landscape and wide images. Platform requirements can change, so confirm the current requirements before publishing.

What size should an Instagram, LinkedIn or Facebook image be?

The correct size depends on where the image will appear. GeckoShareSafe includes 9:16, 4:5, 3:4, 1:1, 2:3, 16:9 and 1.91:1 templates. Platform requirements can change, so verify the current dimensions, especially for advertisements or unusual placements.

How can I resize an image without losing quality?

Begin with the highest-quality original available and avoid enlarging a small source more than necessary. If you need a larger image, Convert also offers local AI upscaling at 2× or 4×. Review the result carefully because no image tool can restore every missing detail.

How do I change an image’s aspect ratio without stretching it?

Choose the GeckoShareSafe template with the aspect ratio you need, then reposition and scale the image inside the frame. This preserves the image’s proportions and avoids stretched faces, circles or objects while giving you control over the final crop.

How do I reduce image file size without losing quality?

Resize the image to the dimensions you actually need, then choose JPG or WebP and adjust the quality control. PNG is lossless but can be much larger. Reducing file size normally involves a tradeoff, so review the finished image before publishing.
