Resize without distortion

The calculator scales width and height together until the target frame is covered. It never changes one dimension independently, so people and objects keep their natural proportions.

Plan the crop before editing

The result shows whether the target needs a side crop or a top-and-bottom crop. Keep faces, text, and important details away from the edges that will be removed.

Does this calculator stretch my image?

No. It scales both dimensions by the same amount, then shows the crop required to fill the selected format.

Why is cropping sometimes necessary?

A landscape photo and a portrait post use different aspect ratios. Filling the frame without distortion means some pixels must be removed from the longer edge.

Where should I place faces and text?

Keep essential details near the centre when adapting one image to several formats. The crop direction tells you which edges need the most breathing room.

Do I need to upload my photo?

No. Enter the original width and height shown in your image information. WePhoto only calculates dimensions and never receives the image.
