Frequently asked questions
When should I use Base64 images?
For small assets under a few KB — logos, icons, placeholders. Base64 inflates size by ~33%, so large images are better served as normal files.
What is a data URI?
A data URI embeds the file content directly in the string (data:image/png;base64,...), so the browser needs no extra request to display it.
Is my image uploaded?
No. Encoding happens entirely in your browser. Your files never leave your device — all processing happens locally in your browser.
