Resizing runs entirely in your browser — your image never leaves your device.

Pinterest Pin Resizer

Pinterest's feed is a 2:3 canvas — pins at 1000×1500 get the full slot, while off-ratio images get cropped or letterboxed and quietly underperform. This resizer seeds both dimensions: drop an image, and the workspace starts at the exact pin spec. Compose, export a crisp JPG, and your pin lands pixel-perfect — all locally.

The 1000×1500 Spec

Recommended pin: 1000×1500 pixels (2:3 ratio). Wider shapes get their sides trimmed in feed; much taller pins (like 9:16) get truncated with a 'see more' cut. 2:3 fills the tile edge-to-edge — the format Pinterest's own best-practice guides push.

Source images in other shapes need a real crop before resizing — unlock the aspect lock here and position the crop, or crop in your design tool first.

Designing for the Scroll

Pins compete in a fast vertical feed: bold headlines readable at thumbnail size, a clear focal subject, and text stacked in the upper or lower thirds perform best. Export at quality 90 — Pinterest re-compresses uploads, and clean sources survive it best.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is a Pinterest pin?

1000×1500 pixels (2:3) is Pinterest's recommended pin size. The preset here seeds exactly those dimensions.

What about idea pins and video pins?

Idea (video) pins run 1080×1920 (9:16) — a different canvas. This page targets standard image pins, the format that drives outbound clicks.

Will Pinterest crop my pin if it's not 2:3?

Yes — off-ratio pins are cropped or padded in the feed, and the crop is Pinterest's choice. Supplying 2:3 keeps you in control of the composition.

JPG or PNG for pins?

JPG at quality ~90 for photographic pins; PNG only for flat text-heavy designs. Both stay far under Pinterest's 20MB limit at 1000×1500.
