Merge Images

Join pictures into one image, side by side or top to bottom. Nothing is cropped, and every image stays at its own size unless you choose to match them.

Nothing Is Cropped

Every picture is placed whole, edge to edge in one row or one column. A collage crops photos into equal tiles; this keeps each one exactly as it was framed.

Resizing Is Counted

Original sizes means scale 1 for every image. Match modes resize, and the report under the preview says how many images were shrunk and how many were enlarged.

Privacy-First

Every image is read and drawn by the Canvas API on your own device. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and no account is needed. Close the tab and the images are gone.

How it works

Merging is not a collage

A collage maker cuts every photo down to fill an equal cell, so the edges of each picture are lost. Merging keeps every picture whole: images are placed edge to edge in one row or one column and nothing is cropped. If you want a grid with equal tiles, use the collage maker; if you want two screenshots or photos joined exactly as they are, merge them.

Original sizes means scale 1, not almost

With original sizes selected every image is drawn at exactly its own pixel size, so the merged file contains the same pixels you uploaded. Matching heights or widths has to resample. Shrinking loses detail you may not miss; enlarging adds pixels but no detail, and a small image stretched to match a large one looks soft. The report under the preview counts how many images were shrunk and how many were enlarged, every time.

Why some merged images come out blank

Browsers cap how large a canvas can be. Past that cap the export silently comes back empty or fails, and many tools hand over the empty file anyway. This page checks the merged size against a 16,384 px side and 16.8 megapixel area, the limit Safari on iPhone holds, before drawing anything. Over it, the download is switched off and the report tells you how far to shrink.

Empty space, backgrounds and transparency

When images differ in size and keep their original sizes, part of the merged canvas is covered by no picture. That area is filled with the background colour or left transparent, and the report states how many pixels it is. Transparency survives only in PNG. JPEG has no alpha channel, so a transparent background written to JPEG is filled with white, and the report says so rather than pretending.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I merge two images into one?

Upload both images, choose side by side or top to bottom, and download. Use the arrows in the list to change the order. Add a gap if you want space between them, and pick a background colour for any space the images do not cover.

Does merging reduce the quality?

Not with original sizes selected. Each image is drawn at scale 1, so its pixels are copied as they are. Saving as PNG keeps them exactly; saving as JPEG applies normal JPEG compression. Only the match modes resample, and the report under the preview says how many images were resized.

Should I match the smallest or the largest image?

Match the smallest when you want nothing enlarged: bigger images are shrunk and stay sharp. Match the largest when the output size matters more than sharpness: smaller images are stretched up and look softer, because enlarging adds pixels but no detail.

What is the difference between this and a collage maker?

A collage maker crops each photo to fill an equal tile in a grid. This tool never crops: images sit edge to edge in a row or a column at their own proportions. Use the collage maker for a grid of equal tiles, and this for joining screenshots, before-and-after shots or panoramas exactly as they are.

Why is the download button disabled?

The merged image would be larger than a browser can export reliably - 16,384 px on a side or about 16.8 megapixels. Past that limit browsers produce blank files without warning, so the page refuses instead. Use a match mode, fewer images, or smaller images, and the report says how far you are over.

Can I keep a transparent background?

Yes, tick transparent and save as PNG. JPEG cannot store transparency, so the same setting written to JPEG is filled with white, and the report tells you when that happens.

How many images can I merge?

Up to 20 in one go, as long as the result stays inside the size limit. You can add more files after the first upload and they are appended to the end of the list.

Are my images uploaded anywhere?

No. The images are read and drawn on a canvas in your own browser. There is no server call, no storage and no account, and closing the tab discards everything.
