About this tool
Ten kilobytes is an icon or a tiny thumbnail, not a portrait. A small JPEG of a simple logo can live there. A face, a receipt, or a screenshot of text generally cannot, and the tool stops rather than emit gray noise. Keep the original for anything a person must read.

- No upload: the pixels never go to an image host.
