Frequently Asked Questions
Which applications need a 50KB photo?
SSC asks for candidate photos of roughly 20-50KB, and many bank and railway recruitment portals use similar photo limits. If your portal states a different range, aim for the middle of it rather than the maximum.
Will my face still be recognisable at 50KB?
Absolutely. 50KB is plenty for a passport-style photo at typical portal dimensions. Problems usually come from the source photo - use even lighting, a plain background, and crop to head and shoulders before compressing.
Does my photo get uploaded to your servers?
No. Compression runs locally in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device. There is nothing for anyone to store, scan, or leak.
JPG or PNG - which should I use?
Use JPG for photos - it compresses photographic detail far more efficiently and most portals expect JPG/JPEG. PNG is better only for line art like signatures on white paper, and even then portals usually accept JPG.
