Is Photo To URL free?

Yes. Converting a photo to a URL costs nothing and there's no paid tier gating the basic flow. The free allowance is 10 uploads per IP address per day. Circle Crop, Rounded Corners, and Remove Background are unlimited because they run in your browser and never touch our servers.

Do I need an account or an email address?

No — there's no sign-up, no email confirmation, and no login anywhere on the site. The trade-off is that there's no dashboard either: your links are kept in this browser's local storage and shown in the Upload records drawer, so copy anything you'll need long term into your own notes.

Which image formats and sizes can I upload?

PNG, JPG, WEBP, and GIF up to 5 MB per file. Animated GIFs keep their animation. For PDFs, Office documents, CSV, TXT, and ZIP archives up to 10 MB, use File to URL or PDF to URL instead.

How long does an image link last?

There's no expiry timer and no automatic cleanup after 7, 30, or 90 days — a link is meant to keep resolving for as long as the service runs. That said, no free host should be your only copy: keep the original file, and treat the link as a convenience rather than a backup.

Do you add watermarks or re-compress my image?

No. Nothing is stamped onto your image and no logo is added to the corner. The file is stored and served as you uploaded it, so a 5 MB PNG comes back byte-for-byte rather than as a smaller, softer copy.

Can I use the links commercially?

Yes. You keep every right you had in the image; hosting it here doesn't transfer anything to us or license it to anyone else. Only upload files you own or have permission to publish, since anyone with the URL can view them.

Can I embed the link in Markdown, HTML, or BBCode?

That is the main use for it. In Markdown write ![alt text](your-link); in HTML, use an img element whose src is your link and whose alt describes the picture; on BBCode forums, wrap the link in [img] tags. Because the URL points at the file itself, none of these need to be converted or unwrapped first — the snippets section above has each one ready to copy.

Who can see the images I upload?

Anyone with the link. Uploads are renamed to random identifiers, aren't listed in any public gallery, and are kept out of search indexes — but they're unlisted rather than private, and there's no password option. Don't upload anything you'd mind a stranger opening.

Does it work on a phone or tablet?

Yes. Tap the uploader to pick a photo from your camera roll or take a new one, and the link appears in the same card. The browser-based editors work on mobile too, though Remove Background is heavier and runs faster on a laptop.

What happens when I reach the 10-upload limit?

The next upload is refused with a message rather than failing silently, and the counter resets at midnight UTC. The limit is per IP address, so a shared office or campus network can reach it sooner than you expect. The in-browser editors are unaffected and keep working.

Can I delete an upload?

Not from the interface yet — self-serve deletion is on the roadmap. Until it ships, use the contact page with the link you want removed and we'll take it down. Clearing the Upload records drawer only clears your local list, not the hosted file.

How is this different from a Google Drive or Dropbox share link?

Those links open a viewer page built around the file, which is why pasting one into Markdown or an img tag shows nothing. The link here is the file, so it renders wherever a URL is accepted — and it takes two clicks instead of uploading, waiting for a sync, and adjusting sharing permissions.

Resize Image in CM

Set an image's width and height in centimetres, with a DPI setting that controls the printed result.

Centimetres Only Mean Something With a DPI

An image file has no physical size of its own - it has pixels. A centimetre measurement only becomes real when you pair it with a resolution, which is what the DPI field does. This page starts at 300 DPI because that is the standard for printing: at that setting, 1 cm is about 118 pixels, so a 10 × 15 cm photo is roughly 1181 × 1772 pixels. Drop the DPI to 96 and the same 10 × 15 cm would only be 378 × 567 pixels, which would print badly. Set the DPI your printer or lab expects first, then type the centimetres you need.

How to Resize an Image

Upload your image

Choose a JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF file. The tool shows its original dimensions and file size straight away.

Enter the new size

Pick a unit, type a width or height, and leave the lock on to keep the proportions. Presets like 300 × 300 and 1920 × 1080 are one tap away.

Download the resized image

Choose an output format and quality, then save the file at exactly the dimensions you set.

Resizing in Centimetres

How many pixels is 1 cm?

About 118 pixels at 300 DPI, or about 38 at 96 DPI. The pixel output is shown under the preview so you can always see the real number.

What DPI should I use for printing?

300 DPI is the usual standard for photos and documents. Large posters viewed from a distance can go lower, around 150 DPI.

Why does my image look small on screen after resizing?

Screens ignore DPI and show pixels. A 5 cm image at 96 DPI is only 189 pixels wide, which looks tiny on a monitor but prints at the right size.

Can I switch to millimetres?

Yes - the millimetre resizer works the same way and is handier for document photo standards like 35 × 45 mm.
