800 x 800 pixels: uses, aspect ratio and how to resize

800×800 pixels is the size YouTube recommends for a channel's profile picture: the icon is shown as small as 98 × 98 px and cropped to a circle, but YouTube keeps the 800 px original for sharp display on large screens and TVs. The same size is a solid choice for product photos on your own shop, podcast artwork thumbnails and any square image that should still look crisp when viewed full screen on a phone.

A 800 × 800 image holds 640,000 pixels (0.64 MP). Saved as a JPG at the default 90% quality, a typical photo at this size weighs roughly 110 to 250 KB; logos and flat graphics are usually lighter. In print, 800 pixels span 2.67 in (6.8 cm) at 300 DPI, or 5.33 in (13.5 cm) at 150 DPI.

What 800 × 800 pixels is used for

  • YouTube channel icon: the recommended 800 × 800 px upload (JPG, PNG, GIF or BMP, up to 4 MB).
  • Shop product photos: large enough for a zoom-on-hover effect on most themes.
  • High-quality avatars: Discord, Twitch, Google and app profiles that are viewed on big screens.
  • Square social images: a lighter alternative to 1080 × 1080 for blogs and link previews.

How to resize an image to 800 × 800 pixels

  1. Drop your images on the box, click to choose them, or paste one with Ctrl+V (JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, GIF, BMP, TIFF, SVG; up to 80 MB each).
  2. The size is preset to 800 × 800 px with Crop to fill; choose which part to keep (center, top, bottom, left or right) or switch to Fit with background or Stretch.
  3. Pick the format: Original, JPG, PNG, WebP or AVIF (in browsers that can encode it), and set the quality, or switch to Target size and enter a limit in KB.
  4. Drag the before/after slider on the preview; every change is re-rendered live.
  5. Click Download, or Download all (ZIP) for several files, named like photo-800x800.jpg.

Turning a non-square photo into 800 × 800

Phone and camera photos are usually 4:3 or 3:2, so a square needs a decision. Take a 4000 × 3000 shot: Crop to fill scales it to 1067 × 800 and trims about 133 px from the left and right edges. Fit with background keeps the whole picture at 800 × 600 and fills 100 px above and below with white, black, grey, any colour or transparency (PNG, WebP, AVIF). Stretch squeezes it to 800 × 800, which distorts faces, so keep it for images that are almost square already. With Fit, the Don't enlarge smaller images option centres a small source at its own size instead of blowing it up.

Tips for 800 × 800 images

  • The channel icon is cut to a circle: keep text and faces inside the middle 75%, or they will be clipped.
  • A logo looks best centred with Fit with background and a solid brand colour behind it.
  • YouTube's limit is 4 MB, which an 800 px JPG never reaches: keep quality at 90% for clean edges.

Everything runs in your browser: images are never uploaded, and there is no account, no watermark and no limit on the number of files. Under More options you can write a DPI value into JPG and PNG files or change the file-name pattern, and location and camera data (EXIF) are always removed.

800 × 800 or a bigger square?

SizePixelsTypical use
800 × 8000.64 MPYouTube channel icon, shop and blog images shown up to 800 px
1080 × 10801.17 MPInstagram square feed post
1200 × 12001.44 MPLinkedIn square post, Amazon zoom (1000 px or more)

A bigger square costs file size without looking sharper where the image is shown small. Choose 800 × 800 when a site asks for it or displays the image at up to 800 pixels, and the 1200 × 1200 resizer when the platform shows it larger or offers zoom.

Frequently asked questions

What size is a YouTube profile picture?

YouTube recommends 800 × 800 pixels. It is displayed as a circle at about 98 × 98 px, so keep the important part in the centre.

Is 800x800 good for product photos?

Yes for most online shops: it allows a modest zoom. Marketplaces such as Amazon need at least 1000 px for their zoom feature, so use 1080 or 1200 there.

How many KB is an 800x800 image?

Around 110 to 250 KB as a JPG at 90% quality.

How do I resize a photo to 800x800 without cropping it?

Choose Fit with background. The whole photo is scaled to fit inside 800 × 800 px and the empty space is filled with a colour you choose, or left transparent when you save as PNG, WebP or AVIF.

What size is 800x800 pixels in inches or cm?

At 300 DPI it prints at 2.67 × 2.67 in (6.8 × 6.8 cm); at 150 DPI at 5.33 × 5.33 in (13.5 cm). On screen only pixels count; DPI matters for printing and can be set under More options.

Can I resize multiple images to 800x800 at once?

Yes. Add as many images as you like (they all get the same settings) then download them one by one or together as a ZIP file.

What aspect ratio is 800 x 800?

800 x 800 is a square, so its aspect ratio is 1:1: the width and the height are the same.

Should I use 800x800 or 1080x1080?

Use 1080 × 1080 for Instagram square posts, because Instagram shows feed images up to 1080 pixels wide. Use 800 × 800 for a YouTube channel icon and for shop or blog images shown at up to 800 pixels: it has a little over half the pixels (0.64 MP against 1.17 MP), so the file loads faster.

How do I convert an image to 800x800?

Drop the image on the box above: the size is already set to 800 × 800. Choose Crop to fill to trim it to a square or Fit with background to keep the whole picture, then click Download. Several images can be converted at once and saved as a ZIP.
