Resizing images

Imgsrc.space can also resize the images for you. To enter your desired dimensions put an "?" at the end of the search term and then your enter your desired height and width. Here "h" stands for height and w stands for width. They must be separated by an &

AutoResizing images

If you only provide a single dimension parameter (i.e only height or width) Imgsrc.Space would automatically resize the other parameters accordingly

The easier way

If you are writing html pages, then we have a good news, you can use our js library to make things easier.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/imgsrc-space/imgsrc.space-js-library/main.js" > </script>

Copy and paste the above script tag to the TOP of your html page (in the head tag), and that's it.

Now to use a image just enter a "dot followed by a space and then your search term ".Here are some examples of what you can do with it:

<img src=". cow" >

<img src=". dog?h=500&w=70" >

<img src=". sunset?w=700" >

<video> <source src=". car-v" type="video/mp4"> </video>

You can find more details in this documentation

Hope this would save you guys some time. Happy coding 😀👍🏼
