Prepare a consistent set of photos for a TikTok slideshow

A photo slideshow is a sequence, not just a folder of files with matching dimensions. Choose an opening image that explains the subject, follow with useful detail, and remove repetitive photos that add little. Decide the order before resizing so you can judge whether each crop contributes something to the story rather than simply filling another slot.

This page starts with our 1080×1920 vertical preset. That is a preparation choice for a tall photo workflow, not a guarantee about every TikTok account's available post types or upload limits. Check the publishing options in the app you actually use before preparing a large set.

Look for mixed source shapes. A landscape group photo and a close vertical portrait will not survive the same crop in the same way. If one image needs its full width, revise the composition in an editor or keep its proportions instead of accepting a crop that removes an important person or part of the subject.

Select the photos and process them with the vertical preset. Open each result in the queue and check the subject placement. A consistent output shape does not guarantee consistent composition. One photo may need the crop moved upward for a face, while another needs it moved sideways to keep the product or action visible.

Compare image quality across the set. A clean camera original can tolerate reduction differently from an old screenshot or a messenger download. Inspect skin, fine lettering, and dark gradients. Keep sharpening restrained so one photo does not look unnaturally harsh beside the others. The tool adjusts edge contrast, not colour grading, exposure, or the overall style of a set.

Download the finished files and keep their names organised so you can find the intended order. Batch export does not create a video, set slide timing, attach music, or combine the images into a new composition. Those decisions belong in your TikTok publishing workflow or a separate editing application.

Add the prepared photos in TikTok and confirm the order, crop, and available display options. Review the complete draft rather than only the first image. Interface controls, captions, or other overlays can affect whether important wording remains visible, so keep essential information away from the outer edges when you create the original artwork.

If the slideshow uses text cards, read them on a phone without zooming. A card can be perfectly encoded and still be too dense for the pace of the sequence. Shorten the message or split the explanation in the source design rather than expecting a higher compression quality to solve a layout problem.

Keep the originals and the final exports separately. A future change in crop or sequence should start from those sources, not from files downloaded after posting. TikTok can apply its own processing, and local preparation cannot prevent every later encode. IGCOMPRESSOR prepares the still images in your browser; it does not publish the slideshow, sync it to your account, or decide whether the platform presents your set as photos or video.

Pay attention to consecutive crops that make the subject jump dramatically in size. That may be intentional for a detail sequence, but an accidental jump can make otherwise clear photographs feel unrelated when viewed together.
