Resize an Image for an Email Signature

A crisp, tiny signature logo or photo that loads instantly: resize and compress so it never slows an email down.

The quick answer

An email signature image should be small: about 300–400px wide (100–150px tall for a logo) and well under 100KB, so it loads instantly and doesn't bloat every email. Resize to the display width and compress hard. Host the image and link to it rather than embedding a huge file. Our tools do it in your browser.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Resize small

    Set the width to ~300–400px for a logo, or ~100–150px for a headshot, in Image Resizer.

  2. 2

    Compress hard

    Signatures repeat on every email, compress well under 100KB so they never slow things down.

  3. 3

    Use the right format

    PNG keeps a logo crisp with transparency. JPG is smaller for a photo.

an email signature tips
  • Host the image on your site or a service and link to it, embedding large images bloats every message.
  • Keep it small. Oversized signature images are a common reason emails feel slow or get flagged.
  • A transparent PNG logo sits cleanly on both light and dark email themes.
