IBPS photo size: 200 × 230
The frame is already set. Drop an image in and it is scaled to fill 200 × 230 exactly, with the overflow trimmed from the centre instead of the picture being stretched.

Why 200 × 230
200x230 px is the photograph box on the IBPS banking application forms and on the state portals built from the same template. It is slightly taller than it is wide, which is the shape of a head and shoulders rather than of a square crop.
SSC and UPSC use different numbers: roughly 275x354 for SSC, which specifies 3.5 x 4.5 cm rather than pixels, and 350x350 for UPSC. Forms want a plain light background and the face filling most of the frame.
What happens to an image that is not 20:23
Three things can be done with a photograph that does not match the frame, and only one of them is usually right.
| Mode | Result | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| Fill exactly | Scaled up until it covers 200×230, then trimmed from the centre. Nothing is distorted; the edges are lost. | Almost always. It is the default here. |
| Fit inside | Scaled until the whole picture fits. You get the full image but smaller than 200×230 on one axis. | Nothing may be cropped, and you will add your own background. |
| Exact (stretch) | Squashed to 200×230. Faces and circles distort. | Practically never. |
The ratio here is 20:23. The closer your source is to it, the less the fill mode has to trim. A photograph shot in the right orientation loses almost nothing.
The weight is a band, not a ceiling
This form wants the file between 20 KB and 50 KB. Both ends are enforced, and a file under 20 KB is rejected exactly like one over 50 KB. That catches people out, because every other tool treats the number as a ceiling and hands back the smallest file it can manage.
Both boxes below are already filled in. Your browser searches for the highest quality that still fits under 50 KB, and if the result comes out under 20 KB it spends the remaining headroom on quality to climb back into the band. A clean scan of a signature sometimes cannot reach the floor at 200×230 whatever the quality, because there is simply not enough detail in it. The row says so when that happens, instead of padding the file with junk to make the number look right. Rescan at a higher resolution, or in colour rather than black and white, and bring it back.
Questions
+ Will my image be stretched?
No. The default mode scales the image until it covers the frame and then trims the overflow from the centre, so proportions are kept. Stretching is available in the mode selector, but it distorts anything recognisable and is almost never what you want.
+ What if my photo is smaller than 200×230?
It is enlarged to fill the frame. Enlarging cannot add detail that was never captured, so the result will be softer than a photograph taken at that size. The frame will be correct, but start from the largest original you have if you can.
+ Are my images uploaded?
No. The resizing happens in your browser on your own processor. Nothing is sent, there is no queue, and the page carries on working if you disconnect from the internet.
+ Can I resize a whole folder at once?
Yes. Drop in as many as you like, or on Chrome and Edge use "Open a folder" to read every image in a folder and write the results straight back into a folder you choose, with no ZIP in between.
+ Is there a watermark or a sign-up?
Neither. There is no account and no watermark, and nothing is capped.
