What the image cropper does
The image cropper trims away the parts of a picture you don’t want and keeps the rest at full resolution. Use it to remove clutter from the edge of a photo, cut a screenshot down to the window that matters, or make a square profile picture.
Preset ratios cover the common shapes: 1:1 for avatars, 16:9 for video thumbnails and banners, 9:16 for vertical stories, 4:5 for portrait social posts, plus 4:3 and 3:2, the shapes most cameras shoot in. Choose Free to draw any shape.
How to use the image cropper
Cut an image down to the part you want, freely or to an exact aspect ratio.
- Drop the image you want to crop, or click to choose it.
- Drag the box to move it and drag a corner to resize it, or type exact pixel values. Pick a ratio such as 1:1 or 16:9 to lock the shape.
- Choose a format and press Crop image, then download the result.
Tips
The box starts over the middle 80% of the picture, and Select all stretches it back to the full image, or as much of it as a locked ratio allows. The Left, Top, Width and Height boxes count real pixels in your file, not the smaller preview on screen, so a large photo is still cropped at its full detail. With a ratio locked, typing a width sets the height for you, and typing a height sets the width.
“Same as original” keeps JPG, PNG and WebP in their own format and saves anything else as PNG. JPG and WebP results are saved at 92% quality, and a JPG gets a white background wherever the original was transparent. The download keeps your file name with -cropped added.
Questions
Can I crop with the keyboard?
Yes. Focus the crop box with Tab, then use the arrow keys to move it (Shift for 10 pixels) and Alt with the arrows to resize. The number fields also accept exact values.
Does cropping reduce quality?
Cropping keeps the original pixels. Saving as JPG or WebP re-compresses the image slightly; choose PNG for no loss.
Can I crop to an exact size, such as 1080 × 1080?
Yes, as long as your image is at least that big. Type the width and height into the boxes, then move the area into place. The box can’t extend past the edges of the picture, so for a smaller final size, crop first and then use the Image Resizer.
Why did the box change when I picked a ratio?
The tool keeps the box’s width and centre and works out a new height. If that height won’t fit inside the image, the box shrinks until it does.
Is my picture sent to a server?
No. Cropping happens in your browser.
