Image to Base64 Conversion Guide

What is Base64 encoding?

Base64 encoding converts binary image data into a text string that can be embedded directly in HTML, CSS, or transmitted via text-based protocols.

When should I use Base64 images?

Use Base64 for small images, icons, or when you need to embed images directly in HTML/CSS without separate files. Not recommended for large images due to increased file size.

What's the file size impact?

Base64 encoding increases file size by approximately 33%. A 100KB image becomes about 133KB when encoded.
