Guide to Resizing Images
Need a different format? Resize your images in getimg.ai with one short prompt. Here’s how.
How It Works
Resizing lets you change the shape or proportions of your image. It’s useful when you need to fit a specific format (like a square post, vertical story, or wide banner).
You don’t need separate tools or manual cropping: just select a new aspect ratio and a new version will be generated.

Resized (1:1)
Resized (16:9)
Resize from Full Image View
This is the most direct and recommended way to resize your images.
- Click on any image within the Content Generator to open it in the full image view.
- Press the resize icon next to the prompt box (it's the middle one) and choose your target aspect ratio from the dropdown list that appears.
- A new image with your selected aspect ratio will be generated, leaving the original version untouched.
Alternative Method: Resize from the Main Prompt Box
You can also resize your image directly from the main Content Generator view.
Step 1. Add the Image You Want to Resize
You can add your image in a few ways:
- Click the file with a plus icon (📄➕) and choose it from your Generated or Uploaded media (or upload a new one)
- Drag and drop a previously generated or uploaded image from the Content Generator directly into the prompt box
- Or hover over an image in the Content Generator, click ⋯, and select Use image.
Step 2. Set the Target Aspect Ratio
In the prompt box at the bottom of the Content Generator, open the aspect ratio dropdown and choose your target shape, for example:
- 1:1 for square posts
- 9:16 for stories or reels
- 16:9 for wide landscapes or YouTube thumbnails
This tells getimg.ai how to frame your new image.
Step 3. Write the Prompt
In the prompt box, simply type your instruction: “resize this image, don't change anything else”.
When resizing this way, you can chain multiple instructions in one prompt, e.g., "resize this image and change the style to an oil painting".
Step 4. Generate
Click the arrow in the prompt box to start resizing.
Your resized image appears as a new version, while the original stays untouched.
