What This Tool Does
This tool resizes images for Pinterest pins, boards, and profile pictures. Pinterest favors tall, vertical images that stand out in its scrolling feed. Upload your image, choose a preset, and download a pin-ready version.
Pinterest's layout rewards vertical images because they occupy more visual space in the feed. Horizontal or incorrectly sized images get compressed into smaller cards and receive less attention. Proper sizing is essential for visibility.

Best Practices for Images
- Use a 2:3 aspect ratio for standard pins — this is the format Pinterest recommends for best performance.
- Avoid extremely long pins. Pinterest may truncate images taller than a 1:2.1 ratio in the feed.
- Place your most important content in the top third of the pin, since the bottom may be cut off in smaller previews.
- Use readable text overlays — many Pinterest users browse on mobile with smaller screens.
- High-contrast, bright images tend to perform better on Pinterest's visual feed.
