How to stretch an image
- Upload an image.
- Drag Horizontal to stretch or squeeze the width, and Vertical for the height. 100% is the original size.
- For exact dimensions, type the width and height in pixels.
- Download as PNG, JPG, WebP or SVG.
Tips
- Stretching changes the aspect ratio. To make an image bigger or smaller without distortion, use resize & compress.
- To fit a photo to a new shape without distortion, crop it to that ratio instead.
- Stretching past 200% softens detail, because the new pixels are interpolated.
