100% private. Your image is resized on your own device using your browser. It is never uploaded to a server, and there is no account to create.

Works with images up to roughly 50 MP (about 8000 × 6000 px) depending on your device's memory. WebP export is unavailable in a few older Safari versions — the option is disabled automatically when that is the case.

How it works

Three steps, no account, no watermark.

Add your image

Drag a file onto the box, click to browse, or paste straight from your clipboard with Ctrl + V. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Frame it

The crop box is already locked to 1000 × 1500. Drag the image to move it and scroll or pinch to zoom until it looks right.

Pick PNG, JPG or WebP. The file is compressed automatically to stay under Pinterest's limit — or grab every Pinterest size at once as a ZIP.

About the pinterest pin size

Pinterest recommends a 2:3 ratio, and 1000 × 1500 pixels is the size that hits it cleanly. This matters more on Pinterest than on other platforms because the feed is a masonry grid: taller pins occupy more column space and get noticed, but pins taller than 2:3 are visually truncated, with a 'see more' cutoff that hides your closing message.

Pinterest is also a search engine as much as a social network, which changes how the image should be built. Pins are frequently read at about 236 pixels wide in the grid. Text on a pin needs to be large and layered over a clear area, and the subject should be recognisable at thumbnail scale, because that is the size at which someone decides whether to click through to your site.

Tips for Pinterest

What actually makes the difference once the size is right.

2:3 is the ceiling, not a suggestion

1000 × 1500 shows in full. Go much taller and Pinterest truncates the pin in the feed — the bottom of your design simply disappears.

Text overlay in the top third

The top of a pin is what appears first as the grid scrolls. Put the promise there, not at the bottom.

Design for 236 px wide

That is roughly the grid size on desktop. If your headline is not readable there, the pin will not earn a click.

Make a square version too

1000 × 1000 works for product shots and can be reused directly on Instagram. The ZIP pack on this page gives you both in one download.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Pinterest pin size?

1000 × 1500 pixels, a 2:3 ratio. It is Pinterest's own recommendation and the tallest shape that displays without being truncated.

Can I make a taller pin?

You can go up to about 1000 × 2100, but Pinterest truncates long pins in the feed with a cutoff. Use it only when the top of the pin can stand alone.

What is the Pinterest file size limit?

20 MB per image. That is generous, but smaller files load faster in the feed, so this tool still compresses sensibly.

Does pin size affect reach?

Indirectly. Correctly sized 2:3 pins take more grid space and are shown in full, which tends to earn more saves than a cropped or small pin.

What size is a Pinterest board cover?

600 × 600 pixels, square, then cropped to a rounded shape on your profile. It is included in the ZIP pack.

Should pins be JPG or PNG?

JPG for photography, PNG when the pin is mostly text and flat colour. Both are available in the format selector.
