File size counts stored bytes. Format, quality, metadata, and image complexity connect them, but not with a fixed formula.</description><pubDate>Sun, 23 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Base64 images explained</title><link>https://compressimage.fun/guides/base64-images-explained</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://compressimage.fun/guides/base64-images-explained</guid><description>Base64 turns binary bytes into text using a 64-character alphabet. It is useful inside text-only systems, but adds roughly one third before compression.</description><pubDate>Sun, 23 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>HEIC explained and when to convert it</title><link>https://compressimage.fun/guides/heic-explained-and-when-to-convert</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://compressimage.fun/guides/heic-explained-and-when-to-convert</guid><description>HEIC can keep high-quality photographs in fewer bytes than older JPEG workflows. Convert when a form, app, or recipient does not support it, not merely because the extension looks unfamiliar.</description><pubDate>Sun, 23 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>How to resize a passport or form photo safely</title><link>https://compressimage.fun/guides/how-to-resize-a-passport-or-form-photo</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://compressimage.fun/guides/how-to-resize-a-passport-or-form-photo</guid><description>Use the current requirements from the authority receiving the file.
