How to use Image to Base64

Choose an image file.
Encode it in your browser.
Copy the Base64 data string into your code or page.

A good use for this

Embedding a small image directly into HTML or CSS without a separate file.

Limits

Base64 makes the data about a third larger than the original file, so it is a poor choice for large images. It is encoding, not encryption — anyone can decode it.
