About Image to Base64

This tool encodes an image as a Base64 data URI so you can embed it directly in HTML, CSS, or Markdown without a separate file. Drop in an image and copy the data URI or a ready-made snippet. Encoding happens in your browser, so your image is never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

When should I inline an image as Base64?
For small images and icons, inlining avoids an extra network request. For large images it's usually better to keep a separate file.
Which formats can I encode?
Common web image formats like PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, and SVG.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is read and encoded locally in your browser and never sent to a server.
