MakeTiny (image compressor)

• Open MakeTiny: Open MakeTiny
• Drag & drop images or click Choose Files.
• Click Make Tiny to compress with our tuned defaults.
• Track progress per file in the Status column and download when ready.

Supported: JPG, PNG, WebP, and more. We recommend outputting WebP where possible for the best size/quality balance.

Image Converter

• Open Image Converter: Open Image Converter
• Add images and choose your target format (e.g., WebP, PNG, JPG).
• Optionally adjust quality when available.
• Convert and download.

Tip: Converting PNG photos to WebP usually gives the biggest savings. Keep PNG for graphics with transparency when you need pixel-perfect edges.

Image Resizer

• Open Image Resizer: Open Image Resizer
• Add images and pick target width/height.
• Choose fit mode (cover/contain) if available and output format.
• Resize and download.

Tip: Serve images at or just above the rendered size in your layout. This can drastically reduce bytes transferred and improve LCP.

Using the web app (no API required)

Makepicstiny is built for the browser—no CLI or API setup needed.

• Drag & drop onto the page, or click Choose Files.
• Batch multiple files at once.
• Use the Status column to follow progress and download.

Why small images matter (and why WebP is recommended)

Large images slow down your site, hurting Core Web Vitals like LCP and FID. By compressing and converting to modern formats (WebP/AVIF), you’ll reduce bandwidth, improve user experience, and boost SEO. Our MakeTiny compressor balances size and quality automatically—use WebP for most photos, and PNG for sharp graphics when needed.

We’ll publish a full guide on page speed best practices here soon: Page Speed basics (coming soon).

Tips

• Use JPG/WebP for photos; PNG/WebP for graphics depending on transparency/sharp edges.
• Try the Resizer for faster page loads by serving right-sized images.
• Store frequently used assets with Image Storage for quick retrieval.
