Pinterest stores images in multiple resolution tiers to ensure fast page loads across web feeds. When you right-click and save an image from your web browser grid, you usually end up saving a low-resolution thumbnail.
Understanding Pinterest Image Resolutions When a photographer or creator uploads a high-resolution photo to Pinterest, the platform generates several scaled file tiers: - 236px: Small grid preview thumbnail - 474px: Mobile feed thumbnail - 736px: Expanded pin modal preview - Originals: The 100% uncompressed master photo (4K / 8K resolution)
How PintSave Unlocks Original Quality PintSave's extraction engine inspects the pin payload directly to resolve the direct link to the /originals/ file path on the CDN. This ensures you get the exact pixel-for-pixel master file uploaded by the artist.
