Made workflow

Extend an image beyond its original frame

Upload an image, state the dimensions you need, and Made generates new content along the edges so the photo fills the target aspect ratio — turning a square shot into a vertical story or a portrait into a widescreen banner.

What you need to start

JPEG, PNG, or WebP image plus a target width and height (1 to 8,192 pixels per side)

What this tool does

Input
JPEG, PNG, or WebP image plus a target width and height (1 to 8,192 pixels per side)
Output
JPEG image extended to the target aspect ratio
How it works
Made compares the source and target aspect ratios, then asks a Stable Diffusion outpainting endpoint on RunPod to generate new content along one axis, blended into the original with a pixel overlap.

Practical ways to use Image Extender

Story and Reel formats

Turn a square or landscape photo into a 1080 × 1920 vertical without cropping out the subject.

Banners and covers

Extend a portrait or square image horizontally to fill a widescreen hero, header, or cover placement.

Product backgrounds

Generate more of the backdrop around a tightly framed product shot so it fits a wider layout.

Fixing tight crops

Uncrop a photo that was framed too close, adding believable scenery where the frame ended.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload an image

    Choose a JPEG, PNG, or WebP with a scene that can plausibly continue past its edges.

  2. 2

    State the target size

    Give exact dimensions or name the destination, such as “expand this to story format.”

  3. 3

    Let Made generate the extension

    Made works out which direction to expand from the aspect ratios and generates matching content on both sides of that axis.

  4. 4

    Check the seams

    Inspect where the original ends and the generated area begins, then download the JPEG.

It adds AI-generated content beyond the original borders of a photo — often called uncropping or outpainting — so the image fills a new aspect ratio instead of being cropped or padded with empty space.
