Questions

How do I use the data URL?

Put it where the picture's address would go: <img src="data:image/png;base64,…"> in HTML, or url("data:image/png;base64,…") in CSS.

Should every picture be a data URL?

Only small ones, such as icons. Base64 is a third larger than the picture, and the browser can't keep it apart in its cache.

Is Image to Base64 free?

Yes, and as often as you like. It works in your browser, so there is nothing to sign up for.

What happens to my files?

They stay on your device. Everything is worked out in your browser, so nothing you type or choose is uploaded.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It works in the browser on any computer, tablet or phone.

Can I use Image to Base64 from my own code?

You won't need to: every programming language has hashing, Base64 and URL encoding built in. This page is for quick jobs by hand.
