How to Resize All Images Automatically in Blogger

Advertisements
From time to time people send us emails asking a very common question, does there is any way to resize all the images of their blogger blog? Sometimes images of large magnitude flow out of the content this not only disappoint your readers, but also affect your online reputations.  Blogger provides basic options for resizing images, but this not a practical approach and does not fit the blogs designs well.  Fortunately, a straightforward CSS tweak makes it possible to automatically modify each and every image on your site. In this article, we will show you How to Resize All Images in Blogger?

Resizing pictures one-by-one manually is acceptable, but what you would do, if your site has thousands of photos and screenshots. Will you still edit them manually? Even if you decided to do so it would take months or even more than that. Therefore, it is essential to resize them manually through a straightforward CSS coding. Through this approach, you can also revert the size of images back to their original size.

The First thing you need to do is to go to Blogger.com >> your site >> Template >> Edit HTML. Now within the new Blogger HTML Editor search for the ]]></b:skin> tag and just above it paste the following CSS coding. (Quick Tip: If you are unable to find the skin tag, then first click anywhere on the HTML Editor and Press CTRL+F to operate the built in search option connected to the HTML Editor). 

.post-body img {
width: 500px!important;
height: auto!important; }

Now change the values of Width and height, according to your needs. You can even add a border to your images through (border: 1px solid #d2d2d2) a modest border CSS command. After customizing, press the “Save Template” button and that’s all. 

We hope this technique would help you in resizing your old images. If we have missed something or you know a much simpler way of tackling this problem then, the below comment section is all yours.

Very Nice bro now can easily resize all the images inside blogger posts. Thanks to MBL team.

A css code wouldn't work on IE.There are several jQuery and Java codes that help you to resize images.This makes it multi browser.
Just an advise ! PEACE :)

I didn't believe this is possible..I use to have problem with image sizing before, I can take care of it now. thank

April 13, 2013 at 6:45 AM

I guess doing this CSS command is better as different sites have different post body widths:

.post-body img {
max-width: 98% !important
}

This will keep it inside post body no matter how wide it is or small it is! :)

Sometimes people want things to be done the way they like so, this CSS provides them enough options to play. They can customize as they like, Some people like Small images so keeping 98% would just provide them one-way.

In most cases, it does works. However, you need to identify which Browser your audience is using and according to it you can customize things.

Nowadays, it is almost impossible to have a Multi-browser site. At least in blogger, we do need some more plugins jQuery files that slows down the site.

thanks dear

Instead of Resizing all image, its better to set the maximum and minimum height width, specially width for Blog post image, otherwise smaller image will get stretched and get blurred.
for example my blog Intelligent computing has widht of 615px, its better to set attribute to

post-img{
max-width:615px;
min-width:100px;
}
to be in safer side and maintain aspect ratio as well!

Your Blog URL?

July 21, 2013 at 8:52 AM

Hi this works on the post images, however, it appears that it also applies to my social icon images and they end up blowing up hugely. Kindly let me know how ti can specify this such that only the blog post images will be affected.

thank you.

Editorial Team MOD
July 22, 2013 at 10:53 AM

That's because you are using Social icons in your Post Body. Place it after it

July 23, 2013 at 11:37 PM

Thank you!! That was EXACTLY what I was looking for!

July 28, 2013 at 8:12 AM

thanks!

i used the code 98% on all my blogspot blogs and it works like a charm !

July 29, 2013 at 8:28 AM

Is there any way we can change all the pictures to their original size?
Or maybe to the maximum size admited on blogger (photographs of over 3000px are probably too much) ?

And I already tried to use your method and just adjust the size to a big one, but it doesn't work... Was it maybe because I use the dinamic view?
The site is : http://everydaypicturechallenge.blogspot.ro/

Editorial Team MOD

Firstly, dynamic views template is not a great choice. It is inflexible and has fair enough problems.

You can use width:inherit; CSS to just get it to its real size. However, there aren't any css trick that may fulfill your need!

Cheers!

August 1, 2013 at 4:31 AM

I noticed that it has a lot of problems, but at least for now I'm gonna stick with it.

Thank you very much for the answer, I'm gonna give that css a try.

Hugs.

August 12, 2013 at 12:33 PM

I thought blogger resizes images automatically. Didn't they?

Editorial Team MOD
August 20, 2013 at 5:43 AM

No, it doesn't resize images automatically. You have to tweak it as we have mentioned above.

August 28, 2013 at 10:06 PM

Is there a way to only resize the images in the post pages that wouldn't effect the static pages?

I tried it and I have a couple of gallery static pages that I created and it blew out the proportions of each thumbnail.

Thanks!

Add this Code just above the </head> Tag and it would only resize images of your Posts pages

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
.post-body img {
width: 500px!important;
height: auto!important; }
</b:if>

August 30, 2013 at 9:49 PM

Amazing - so helpful, thank you!

October 20, 2013 at 3:30 AM

Hello MBL,

I have a tech blog called www.badritek.com, and since the start i have been using a thumbnail+snippet script (auto read more one). The issue i am facing right now is that i can manually change the height and width of the thumbnail image but i rather want them to resize automatically.

For example if i add a wide image or a tall image, i want them to have the same WIDTH irrespective of the height. Is that possible?

Thanks in advance

November 20, 2013 at 5:15 AM

No, it depends on your templates, some templates already includes the re-sizing script.

December 3, 2013 at 7:45 PM

YOU are the best! Thank you so much!

December 9, 2013 at 3:48 AM

O my God! This is possible. Thakn You Sooooooooooooooo Muchhhhhhhh :)

Hi, thanks for writing this it ha been most helpful. What I would like to know is if there is any way to keep a few individual photos their original (or smaller) size despite having this code? I am a beautyblogger and a few months a got I posted some swatches of a lip stick but instead of both at the same time Iposted a few separate images all aligned and they look much better like that. Now I have applied the CCS code it has blown up those images, wihch has ruined the post :( please let me know if there's any way of ignoring the CSS code for those photos?

Hi there! I did this and it worked... however...all the images are now kind of grainy... even though i know they have a higher quality image uploaded there. For instance this is one of my posts in which the image sizes have been altered using your change:

http://eggsfury.blogspot.com/2014/01/amazing-new-orleans-wedding.html

All the images look crappy and pixelly, however, when i click on them, the better-looking version shows up... is there a way for me to resize the pics while maintaining the image quality?

I know this is an old article so there's a good chance nobody will reply, but I automatically resized my blogger images ages ago (and don't even remember how I did it . . . probably just followed a tutorial and added it to the CSS since I'm not very good at any of this). I wanted to add a new page to my blog with thumbnails, but can't as each thumbnail is automatically resized and doesn't look much like a thumbnail anymore. So I guess what I'd really like is for images to be automatically resized in my posts, but not on one particular page I'd like to create. Could anybody help me out? Thank you!

Hey,
the images on my blog are also very blurry but if you click on them they're a lot better. Can I shrink them somehow to make them look sharper?
