But when you resize and save you lose the transparent background. How do you resize without losing transparency?
Valeria Santalla
Hi Jill! We have now our own image cropper in which you won’t lose your transparency and you can resize your images right in your browser: placeit.net/image-cropper
🙂
Sierra
Yeah but the max is 12MB…… Sooooo
Koen
Hello Valeria, In the Place it image cropper you can’t upload files that are bigger then 7500. So unfortunitly this is not a solution. I would love to here if you have any other solutions to resize images bigger then 7500px without losing transparicy
Valeria Santalla
Hey Koenh! Unfortunately, our cropper is limited to a max file size of 7500px 🙁 for the time being. Hopefully we’ll be able to change this soon!
Oscar
The image cropper doesn’t work for images larger than 7500 px.
So……
Jessica Fuentes
Hi Oscar!
I hope you’re doing well. Our image cropper does work. In fact the maximum per image is 7500 px x 7500 px. On the other hand, and to keep in mind, most design or photo editors don’t allow you to create such large sizes -especially for the web, perhaps more suitable for printers-. We suggest you lower the size to be able to work it in a better way.
Best regards, we hope you found it helpful 🙂

I have the ability to make my own graphics for some things but I’m not finding it very easy to info on how to make that work with placeit’s ‘load your own image’ feature. I see there’s size limits:what about file type? How to eliminate background? These seem like basics that should be easy to discover but I’m not finding much information about using your own assets at all.

If you’re struggling to change image dimensions on Windows when the image has a transparent background, you can 1. open the file. 2. click on the three dots 3. click on ”resize image” 4. click on #define custom dimensions. 5. then save a copy. This worked for me. 🙂
Daniel Knust
can’t find the ”adjust image” and tools?
Valeria Santalla
Hi Daniel! You have to double click on your downloaded image (on your device). The “tools” options is on the top bar of your screen.
