Focused workflow

Compare the workflow with the same real sample

This guide avoids hidden claims: it cites the competitor’s public material and lets you run Pictobank’s actual resize configuration.

  1. 01

    Read the dated evidence

    Review the official TinyPNG source linked below and the scope of each statement.

  2. 02

    Run Pictobank

    Use the shared sample or your own static image with the visible 1600×900 configuration.

  3. 03

    Choose by workflow

    Choose TinyPNG for automatic web compression; choose Pictobank when target geometry and frame behavior need to be reviewed before export.

Intent-specific guidance

Where each resize workflow is stronger

Choose TinyPNG for automatic web compression; choose Pictobank when target geometry and frame behavior need to be reviewed before export.

The 1600×900 target uses a 16:9 frame. Fit determines whether mismatched sources are contained, cropped, padded, or distorted.

01

Pictobank vs TinyPNG working example

Run the autumn sample through Pictobank’s visible 1600×900 FIT configuration and compare the controls that matter to your workflow.

02

What Fit does here

The complete source remains visible and the result stays within the target boundary.

03

No-enlargement behavior

A source that is too small remains below the target, and the predicted dimensions are shown before processing.

Pictobank and TinyPNG: choose by workflow

Pictobank is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by TinyPNG. The name is used only for an honest product comparison.

Where TinyPNG may be stronger: TinyPNG is stronger for automatic content-aware compression, modern codec output, and a dedicated optimization service and API ecosystem.

Where Pictobank differs: Pictobank differs by exposing Resize geometry, enlargement policy, and per-file predictions before processing a mixed batch.

Decision rule: Choose TinyPNG for automatic web compression; choose Pictobank when target geometry and frame behavior need to be reviewed before export.

Resize behavior

The page starts with FIT

The four choices below map directly to Pictobank’s canonical browser resize geometry.

FIT

Keep the whole image

Preserves proportions and keeps the complete source inside the target boundary.

FILL

Cover the frame

Preserves proportions and crops centered excess so the target is completely covered.

PAD

Add a frame

Keeps the complete image inside an exact canvas with transparent or white space.

STRETCH

Force exact edges

Changes source proportions to meet both target dimensions without crop or padding.

Accurate limitations

Boundaries stated before processing

No zero-loss promise, no hidden enlargement claim, and no assumption that every browser or destination accepts every format.

Features, limits, and account terms can change; review the cited official source before deciding.

The public embedded workflow accepts up to 30 static images and 100 MB per file; device memory can impose a lower practical boundary.

Browser canvas export is sRGB and does not preserve the source file’s original embedded metadata.

Technical details

FAQ

Pictobank vs TinyPNG resize questions

What configuration does Pictobank vs TinyPNG load?

It opens with 1600×900, Fit, enlargement prevented, and WebP output.

Will every output have the exact target dimensions?

Not necessarily. Fit preserves the complete source and can produce one shorter edge when aspect ratios differ or the source is undersized.

Can several source sizes be processed together?

Yes. Each selected image is inspected and predicted independently; the batch never assumes every file matches its first image.

Are filenames or image pixels sent to analytics?

No. Analytics contain page-level and aggregate outcome data, not filenames, image bytes, source dimensions, object URLs, or signed URLs.
