Convert an image to WebP.
By changing its link, not its file.
Put f_webp in an image's link and it is served as WebP. Put f_avif and it is AVIF. Leave it out and Bloxx picks the smallest format each browser will take, which is usually one of those two.
The link is the editor.
Change it, and the image changes.

Every version comes from one upload. No copies to keep in order. This sample was generated with Bloxx and hosted like any other image.
Upload the original
Keep the file you have: PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP or AVIF, up to 15 MB.
Ask for the format in the link
bloxx.pics/f_webp/<image> is WebP, f_avif is AVIF, f_jpg is JPEG for link previews that refuse anything newer.
Or let Bloxx choose
With no format in the link, each browser gets the smallest one it can read. Add q_70 if you want to push the size down further.
Does converting change my original?
No. The original stays as uploaded; the format is chosen as the image is served.
What if a browser cannot read WebP?
Leave the format out of the link and Bloxx serves one the browser can read.
Can I convert several at once?
Every image you upload works the same way, and an AI assistant can do it through the Bloxx images connector.
Is WebP always smaller?
Usually, and AVIF usually smaller again, but not for every picture. Compare the two links and use whichever wins.
