Image to Base64 Converter

Convert an image file into a Base64 data URI — a text string you can embed directly in HTML, CSS (as a background-image), or JSON without hosting a separate file. Processed locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

How to use the result

Paste the output directly as an <img src="..."> attribute, or as a CSS background-image: url(...) — no separate image file or HTTP request needed. Best for small icons; large images make Base64-embedded pages noticeably bigger, since Base64 text is about 33% larger than the original binary.
