Frequently asked questions

Can I compress an image to exactly 100 KB?add

Yes. Enter 100 KB and SmallMB aims to create a file at or just below that limit.

Are my photos uploaded?add

No. Image compression runs locally inside your browser.

Will the image lose quality?add

Some quality reduction is necessary for a much smaller file, but SmallMB preserves as much detail as the target allows.

Will the result be exactly 20 KB?add

SmallMB targets 20 KB or slightly below it. Most portals enforce a maximum size, so a result under the limit is normally accepted.

PRACTICAL SIZE GUIDE

What a 20 KB target means

Best used for

A 20 KB image is an extremely small file. It suits strict thumbnail, signature or legacy form limits, but visible resolution loss is likely.

How SmallMB reduces the file

SmallMB tests JPEG quality and, when necessary, image dimensions until the result fits at or below your target. Very small targets need stronger visual reduction.

Before you upload

Open the downloaded image and check faces, signatures and small text.
Confirm the portal asks for a maximum size, not an exact byte count.
Keep the original file until the upload is accepted.
