Compress image to 200KB
At 200KB a photo still looks good on a phone or in an email. Pick the image, keep the 200KB target, and press Compress image, which needs far less resizing than the smaller targets.

How it works
- Pick the listing photo, blog image or upload you need to shrink.
- The 200kb image compressor starts the target at 200KB. Type another size if your site or email service sets a different limit.
- Quality is tried from 92 down to 60. At this size the best quality often fits without changing the pixel size.
- Only images that are still too big get smaller in pixels, and the search runs again.
- The file is checked to be under 200KB and shown in a preview. Then download the JPG once it looks right.

Questions
How do I compress a photo to 200KB?
Pick the photo and keep the 200KB target. Press Compress image. The tool lowers the quality only as far as it needs to, then checks the size before you download.
Is 200KB good enough for a photo in an email?
For most emails, yes. A 200KB JPG loads quickly and looks fine on a phone screen, though a large print made from it will look softer.
Will a blog or listing site accept a 200KB image?
Some sites set a 200KB upload limit. If yours does, keep the 200KB target. If it sets a different limit, type that number instead.
Does a 200KB image lose much quality?
Less than a smaller target would. Most photos keep their detail because the pixel size usually stays the same.
