Why 2:3 and not taller

Pinterest's feed is a masonry grid of tall, narrow cards, and 1000 × 1500 — a 2:3 ratio — is the shape it is tuned for. It is tall enough to take up real space in a scrolling column without being so tall that the feed cuts it off.

Taller pins are not rejected, but they are truncated in the feed and only shown in full when someone opens them. That is why the long infographic pin, once a staple, now mostly appears as a cropped middle section with the conclusion cut off. If the point of the pin is at the bottom, most people never see it.

Because pins are browsed at a few hundred pixels wide on a phone, text overlays have to be large. 1000 pixels of width is plenty of resolution for that; the constraint is legibility rather than detail. Export as JPEG for photographs and PNG for flat graphics with text, both comfortably inside the 20 MB cap.

How to resize an image to 1000 × 1500

  1. Drop your image on the panel above — or paste it, or drop several at once to do a batch.
  2. The width and height are already set to 1000 × 1500, and the aspect lock is off so both numbers are honoured exactly.
  3. If your source is a different shape, crop it to 2:3 first — resizing a different ratio straight to these numbers stretches it.
  4. Pick an output format. JPEG for photographs, PNG for flat colour, text and anything needing transparency.
  5. Download. Nothing was uploaded at any point — the resize ran on your own machine, in this tab.

Questions

Can I use a square pin?

You can, and it will show. It simply occupies less of the column than a 2:3 pin, which is the whole advantage of the taller shape in a masonry feed.

What happens to a very long infographic?

It is truncated in the feed. Anyone who does not tap through sees only a middle slice, so the message has to work in the visible part.
