# Image Resizing vs. Compression
People often confuse resizing with compressing.
- Resizing: Changes the actual dimensions (e.g., from 4000x3000 to 800x600 px). This drastically reduces file size because there are fewer pixels.
- Compressing: Maintains dimensions but reduces file quality/data. For the best results, resize your image to the display size first, then compress it.
