What this tool does
Crop Image cuts a picture down to the part you want. Drag the crop box or its handles, or type the exact position and size in pixels. Ratio presets keep the shape fixed: 1:1 for profile pictures, 4:5 for portrait social posts, 16:9 for video thumbnails, 9:16 for stories, plus 3:2 and 4:3 for prints. You can rotate by 90 degrees and flip the image before cropping, and save the result as PNG, JPG or WebP.
Turn on Round crop and the corners outside the circle are saved as transparent pixels, which is what most sites expect for an avatar.
How to crop an image
- Choose a picture, drop it on the box or paste a screenshot.
- Pick a ratio, or leave it on Free.
- Drag the box into place and resize it with the handles, or type X, Y, width and height.
- Rotate or flip if needed, and switch on Round crop for a profile picture.
- Choose PNG, JPG or WebP and press Crop and download.
When it helps
- Removing the edges, taskbar or other windows from a screenshot.
- Making a square or round profile picture.
- Fitting a photo to the shape a website or marketplace asks for.
- Straightening a sideways phone photo with a 90-degree turn.
What we found in testing
A 1200×800 PNG cropped with the 1:1 preset saved as a 720×720 PNG, the largest centred square the default box allows. With Round crop switched on, the corner pixels of the saved PNG were fully transparent and the centre fully opaque.
Cropping keeps the original pixels inside the box. JPG and WebP files are re-encoded at the quality you set; PNG is lossless.
Tips
- Crop first, then use the Image Resizer to reach an exact pixel size.
- For upload limits in KB, finish with the Image Compressor.
- For official photos, the Passport Photo Maker sizes the head for you.
Frequently asked questions
Does cropping reduce quality?
No. The pixels inside the box are kept. Only saving as JPG or WebP adds compression, at the quality you choose.
How do I make a circular profile picture?
Pick the 1:1 ratio, place the box over the face and turn on Round crop. The PNG has a transparent background outside the circle.
Can I crop to exact pixels?
Yes. Type the X, Y, width and height values. The box updates and stays inside the image.
Which formats can I open?
JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP. GIF animations are saved as a single frame.
Is my picture uploaded?
No. Cropping happens on a canvas in your browser.
