Reduce photos - online and with software

If you want to reduce the size of photos to save space, you can do this online as well as using special software. We present several options in this practical tip.

Reduce photos online on websites

• At FotosVerkleinern.de you can upload your photos and adjust the size based on the pixels or the required storage space. You can also choose additional effects such as black and white, mirror and a frame. To reduce the size of several pictures at the same time, you need a free account.
• Alternatively, you can access the websites Online-Verkleinern.de and Verkleinern.de. Here you can only choose between different quality levels. So more than simple downsizing is not possible here.

Reduce photos with software

• If you want to reduce the size of images more often, the use of software is much more practical. The grandiose image reducer offers a clear interface and has all the important functions on board.
• The Image Resizer for Windows is a bit more convenient. Right-click on an image on your computer and select "Rescale Images" from the context menu. Now a small window opens with all the necessary settings. If you confirm the operation, the reduced file is created in the same folder. The tool selects the last selected setting for your next image reduction.
