FAQ

Should I resize by pixels or by file size?

Check the portal: most specify both, e.g. 'at least 600×600px and under 500KB'.

Will resizing blur my photo?

Downsizing is safe. Avoid enlarging small images — start from the highest-resolution original.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Resizing and compression happen locally in your browser.
