1400 × 1400 Image Converter

Where 1400 × 1400 is actually required

• Apple Podcasts cover art, which requires 1400 minimum and allows up to 3000
• Spotify and other podcast directories that follow the same spec
• Square album artwork for distribution
• Large square thumbnails where 1080 is not enough

Which format to save it as

JPG or PNG, RGB colour space. JPG at quality 90 keeps the file comfortably within directory limits.

The thing that usually goes wrong

Submitting CMYK artwork is a common rejection. Convert to sRGB before uploading, and check the colours have not shifted.

Crop first, then resize

The order matters more than people expect. Cropping decides what is in the frame and costs nothing in quality — it removes whole pixels rather than degrading the ones you keep. Resizing then scales what is left to the target. Do it the other way round and you resize detail you were about to throw away, which wastes quality on pixels that do not survive.

This is especially true for a square target like many of the sizes here. A landscape photo squeezed into a square loses the sides whatever you do — the only question is whether you choose what goes, or a platform does. Use the image cropper first if the framing matters.

Enlarging does not add detail

Scaling down is safe: the extra pixels genuinely are not needed. Scaling up is interpolation — the new pixels are averaged from their neighbours, which produces a smooth guess rather than recovered detail. It looks acceptable up to about 150% and soft beyond that. When you need a bigger version, go back to the original camera file, the RAW export or the vector source, all of which rasterise cleanly at any size.

Other sizes

• 64 × 64 — small icons and game sprites
• 128 × 128 — application icons and chat emoji
• 256 × 256 — windows icons and store thumbnails
• 1000 × 1000 — the amazon listing minimum for zoom
• 1080 × 1080 — the square social post
• 1200 × 630 — the link preview card
• 3000 × 3000 — maximum podcast and marketplace artwork

Need a size that is not listed? The image resizer takes any width and height, and the aspect ratio calculator works out the second dimension when you only know the first.
