This video and setting is so relaxing that I didn't even skip the intro which I do usually

use me as an "I'm here because I just saw a REALLY LONG image on an Instagram meme page" button

Tysm! Id been looking everywhere to know the max resolution IG lets you have and you literally told me everything I needed and wanted to know, and clearly! Tysm tysm 💗

Why wouldn't instagram be made so the default is a standard iphone pic WITHOUT cropping? Is there a photo service that posts without cropping?

You saved my first post after I had already fought my way through the ... fascinating world of copyright editing in photoshop;-) A big thanks!

Thanks for sharing your workarounds. Fell in love with that TK7 control panel for resizing pics just watching you use it... (Where has that been all my life!) Installing it now...

Very helpful thanks, instead of relying on apps to do the no crop and ruining sharpness it’s better like this 😊😊😊

I was looking for some tips that were easy to understand, as a visual artist working in traditional media, I don't necessarily know much about photography, still I needed to stock up my skills in this field to get good quality images of my art. This 'IG-problem' was getting on my nerves, but I think you really helped me here, definitely gonna try it again, thank you!

Thank you for this Great Tip, Sean. I have build me an Action in Photoshop and it works fine.

why does everything have to be so complicated!? Thanks for the fix..

this video has just made me go agggghhhhhhh ! isn't there a simple explaination ....

Thank you! I have issues posting screen shots of quotes, stories, etc. I used to just upload and go. Now the cropping causes a lot of headaches. I guess it’s back to PS I go!

This video helped me a lot and saves some time. Thank you!

Ty, this helped me make photos like PSP boxart show up perfect on my instagram, ty! Keep up the good work!

This was a really helpful vid. Thanks!

Nice one Sean. Great help 👍🏻

Great tips. I need to look into your PS plugins.

Thanks Cap ! It helps me a lot 😁

Hi there how do you get all of your options (like that web sharpen you use to resize the photo) on the side like you have it?

thanks a lot sean, very much needed finally i started my page...

Thank you dude, that helped. 👍

This is exactly what I was looking for! (Never happens.) Thanks!!

Great idea, well explained, thanks!

this video is sooo useful ....none of the videos have explained this tricks hatts off to you

I tried what you did maybe 20 times and still did not get it . Would you explain it how in deatails for beginners?

Thanks a lot! you helped me out! :)

Nice Tuto. But why instagram make things complex ? user should not go through all this process. This is why I never used Instagram.

brooooo you saved my life thanks a million!!!!!!!

Thanks for the helpful tip Sean. I'm sure most photographers will find this quite useful. I however mostly shoot and with a 4X5 aspect ratio merely because I like the feel of it.

man your a hero

Please explain it in pics art......

Thank you very much ! Liked and subscribed.

This was great and thank you. For the vertical/portrait format images, I thought it would be great to have an action that would do the first crop 4X5, then resize the width to 1080 then convert colour profile to SRGB, then bring back the original and stop there. Then you manually resize the crop and save. Unfortunately I could not get the action to work and I have no idea why.....

I didn't know this, very nice presentation

THANKS BUDDY I DONT KNOW WHO YOU ARE FROM WHERE ARE YOU BUT IT WAS A GREAT HELP THANKS A LOT

You lost me at “going back to the original image”

Hey Sean. It’s a simple concept, but you explained it so well and really composed in your flow. Liked and subscribed. Fellow photographer.

Tysm love from India 😊

So the heading was just to get people to watch it. Well done

Very helpful. TY!

I'll definitely have to keep this in mind. OTOH I'm so old that portrait orientation is automatically 8 x 10 (4 x 5)... ;-D

Thanks, super usefull!

Thanks! it´s really cool for a professional insta account. I believe there are apps that do this like "instasize" but i´m not sure if the quality it exports is as good as Photoshop does. Greetings from Mexico

It bothers me so much when you try to post a Snapchat photo on Instagram and it crops it

I do sports graphics of my favorite NFL players. should i just stop poster vertical sizes? Because i have a poster design i made that i stick with for classic players. but evertime it crops? :(

Thank you!

Thanks for the tip. I struggle with this. I put so much effort into making a great digital art picture of a creature. When I try to put it on Instagram, all that is shown is the feet. It is sad. I use Krita for digital art. I hope it has a similar feature to resize pictures. I find Instagram very difficult to use. I can't upload using my laptop. So I have to use a work around. I can't post a picture without it cropping it really badly. I am trying to learn a workaround for that. It is so frustrationg. I don't think it is just because I am not techsavvy enough. I can upload pictures just fine on other social media sites. I may have to quit Instagram if the frustation doesn't get better. I even recommend using Pinterest as an alternative. Pintrest is a popular picture sharing site. It is so much easier to use. I can upload from my PC and the picture doesn't crop. I don't know whether Pinterest has cropping features. It doesn't matter. I can crop in the basic photos program on my PC anyway. I do like the pin and board feature in Pintrest. Boards make it easier to organize pictures. I just have a nitpick that Pinterest doesn't refresh right away. So after uploading, I should close the tab and then opean up the site on a new tab. This is a workaround, but it isn't nearly as bad as pinterest. I like Deviant Art and ArtStation. However they are more niche sites as opposed to popular sites.

so helpful...thanks

thank you!

Thanks a lot it did help for the gram 💯

In PS I resize to 1350 pix high (width will be 900 for 2:3 image) and then use Canvas Size to make width 1080, really quick and easy, even quicker when set as an action.

Thanks it's so nice 😊

You rock!

Finally a video that helped. Thank you so much ! To save anyone one hour of watching stupid videos: ADD WHITE canvas to your photo, just use crop tool , set it to 4:5 in photoshop and enlarge it until your photo fits inside and u have white sides. Export, upload, done !

Huge help, thank you!

well this work for automotive photography as well??

Great tip, Sean - even though many of my shots are 4x5 already ;)

thanks!

Big Thanks

Thanks for the video, exactly what I was looking for! How do you deal with horizontal panoramic? I’m guessing if I size it to 1080 wide and the image is super short- say 200pixels tall, Instagram is going to crop that to a square? Should I just make a square version and then have a 2nd version with white bars on the top and bottom? Thanks

where did that panel pop out from,whats going on here....

Curious what your downstream workflow looks like to get it to IG after that? I've usually saved them to LR and then I can just download the pic to my phone to post that way, however that would mean I would now have 2 photos in my cloud. Great video as always Sean.

Thanks for the explanation. Where is this web sharpen tool? i can't find

Thank you for the tutorial, I did the rescaling but how do I post both images? Instagram still crops to a weird square and I can only upload one image at the time.

Yeah but how can I do it without the TK pannel?

Where did u do the photoshop?

hi about the sizing in facebook, is it the same with Instagram?

This helped me so much Sean. I'm about to ask a client if she is going to be posting the images to Facebook or Instagram or both. If she says both, I'm trying to figure out if I should just give her the 4x5 ratio without the borders or both the one with and the one without. She already has the retouched high resolution. If I have to do this much sizing of images, I may start charging more to custom size them. Or just shoot a little looser and then crop it 4x5. What do you think?

How do I add this... TK7 Web Panel to my workspace

I literally have been trying to figure this out for months and even after this video I still cant. I am like so desperate at this point. I watched a million videos. I downloaded every single photo editing app possible. I just don’t get it. I don’t have photoshop on desktop. I just have the like PSexpress, Lightroom, etc etc. I have picmonkey and on their site you can enter your own aspect ratios. However, if I have a Snapchat photo which is a lot longer than your average photo. How do I resize it? What do I enter in the “width & height” to be able to upload the full size image into Instagram without cutting the photo off? Can someone PLEASE help me with this?? Like anyone lol. I would greatly appreciate it. I’ve been trying to figure this out for literally months now. Ughhh😫😫😫😫this is prob my 3rd time watching this video because I have been searching for answers so much for so long that I always come back to the same results which this video is one of them. 😫plz help🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

where is the web sharpen tool in PS?

I'm not actually sure how you made the borders white without using the "canvas size" tab. Great video

can we use any othere app instead of photoshop

Other than using Photoshop, can you use other programs such as Photopea to achieve this? And do you know if there is a way to do this with Lightroom as well?

Instagram really needs to fix this problem

How do you get the extra tool bar? And what is it called?

how do you have the big tab in the right side where you can control the pixel size?

Where do you find the "Web Sharpen" box? If you are doing it from the top bar?

I;m not familiar with your panel setup. How do i add the web sharpen to my panels

😍

HI how d i use the "web sharpner" on photoshop cs6? to sizr the image as you do on 2:12 ? i get lst here becouse i dont see the same setting and i would like to know how i can do it too

it what it is

Hi there I don’t quite understand how to get web sharpen panel to Photoshop. Where I can download it from ?

Hi Sean: I am now using the TK8 Panels and when I try to follow you step of re-sizing the image, I am unable to get the Web Sharpening to work. Is there a difference process for TK8 users? Thanks, Keith

Where can I crop image to 4:5 ratio

I wish I had a computer so I can edit those pics. I took vertical images on my note 20 ultra and IG won’t let me post the full pic. I’ve also did the 4x5 method and when I try to post multiple images together, IG crops so much the images doesn’t even look good. How I fix this problem. I’ve also used Lightroom.

I hate instagram but I need it!

Can you do a tutorial less fast and also how to do this for multiple photos? Also if it's possible to do in Lightroom?

Could an action be created to this?

I did 4:5 video for Instagram and it still distort my video. What could be the reason Please?

Is there a way to do this in a phone app? Anyone?

How can I change the white border to black border or any other color?

How can we find this tk web sharpen tool in protoshop?

Okay but how do you do this on an iPhone....

I really hate Instagram. Any way to do this for a vertical video?

How could I do this on my phone? For example, using the PS express app?

Shoot landscape and crop the part you want. There you go.

Q: How do you transfer the image from your computer to your phone?

how do u get that web sharpen panel?

Does anyone use MacOS and Safari to post to IG? It saves the step of sending the images to your phone then to IG. Start by opening Safari, and go to IG. Then click Develop, User Agent, I use the iPhone option. The screen will change and you will see the IG icons at the bottom of the page. Post from your computer to IG.
