How to Use the Image Converter

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Select Your Image: Click "Select Image" and choose a JPG, PNG, GIF, or WEBP file from your device.
  2. Choose Output Format: Select your desired format (PNG for transparency, JPG for photos, WEBP for web optimization).
  3. Adjust Quality: Use the quality slider (1-100). Higher values mean better quality but larger file sizes.
  4. Resize (Optional): Check "Resize Image" to change dimensions. Enter width or height—the other adjusts automatically to maintain aspect ratio.
  5. Convert: Click "Convert Image" and wait a moment for processing.
  6. Download: Click "Download Image" to save your converted file.

Understanding Image Formats

JPG/JPEG: Best for photographs and images with many colors. Uses lossy compression, meaning some quality is lost to reduce file size. Perfect for web photos and social media. Does not support transparency.

PNG: Ideal for graphics, logos, and images requiring transparency. Uses lossless compression, preserving all image data. Larger file sizes than JPG but maintains perfect quality. Supports transparent backgrounds.

WEBP: Modern format developed by Google. Offers better compression than both JPG and PNG while maintaining quality. Supports both lossy and lossless compression, plus transparency. Excellent for websites but may not work in older browsers.

GIF: Limited to 256 colors. Best for simple animations and graphics. Not recommended for photos. Supports transparency but PNG is usually better for static images.

Use WEBP when: Optimizing images for modern websites, reducing page load times, or when you need both quality and small file sizes for web use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert images to different formats?

Different formats serve different purposes. JPG is smaller and faster to load, making it ideal for websites and email. PNG preserves quality and supports transparency, perfect for logos and graphics. WEBP offers the best of both worlds for modern web applications. Converting ensures your images work best for their intended use.

Is my data safe when using this tool?

Absolutely. This tool processes everything locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never get uploaded to any server—they stay on your device the entire time. We cannot see, access, or store your images. This approach ensures complete privacy and faster processing.

What quality setting should I use?

For most uses, 80-90% quality provides an excellent balance between file size and visual quality. Use 90-100% for professional photography or when quality is critical. Use 60-80% for web images where smaller file sizes improve loading speed. Experiment to find what works best for your specific needs.

Can I convert multiple images at once?

Currently, this tool converts one image at a time to ensure the best performance and user experience. For batch conversion of many images, consider desktop software like IrfanView, XnConvert, or GIMP, which are designed for processing multiple files simultaneously.
