Resize image to YouTube Thumbnail (1280×720)

Drop an image below and this tool resizes it to 1280×720 pixels, entirely inside your browser — no upload, no install, no sign-up. YouTube recommends 1280×720 (16:9) thumbnails — the resolution it uses to generate every smaller size shown across search, suggested videos, and playlists.

With aspect ratio lock on (the default), the tool computes the matching dimension from your image's own proportions so the result isn't stretched or distorted — it never crops your photo. Turn the lock off if you need to hit this exact box regardless of your image's original shape.
