Resizing in bulk
Cameras and phones produce images far larger than any screen needs. A 12 megapixel photo is 4000 pixels wide; a blog column shows it at 800 to 1200. Serving the original wastes bandwidth and slows the page, and many upload forms reject it outright. Resizing to the size you will actually display is the most effective optimisation there is.
This resizer applies one rule to a whole batch. Choose a width, a longest edge, a percentage or an exact box, and every image is scaled in your browser, with its proportions kept unless you choose otherwise. File names gain the new dimensions so resized copies never overwrite originals.
Exact sizes without distortion
Some places need every image at precisely the same size: product grids, social posts, thumbnails. Width and height with Fill and crop produces exactly that box by scaling each image to cover it and trimming the edges around the centre. Fit inside keeps the whole image instead, leaving it smaller than the box on one side. Both avoid the squashed look of stretching.
