Crop & Resize Image

How to crop

Drag inside the box to move it, drag a corner or edge to resize. Drag on empty canvas to start a new box. Choosing an aspect locks the box to that ratio.

What the size fields mean

Size is the pixel size of the saved file. It defaults to the crop area; change the width and the height follows the ratio. Values larger than the crop enlarge the image and soften it, so start from a big enough original.

Common sizes

Profile and thumbnails 1:1 (Instagram 1080, marketplaces 1000), YouTube thumbnail 16:9 at 1280×720, Instagram portrait 4:5 → crop 3:4 then 1080×1350, ID photo 3:4.

Formats

JPG at 88 is small with no visible loss for photos. PNG for transparency or text, WebP for the web. The image is redrawn on a canvas, so EXIF (including GPS) is not carried over.

Tips for common situations

Square Profile Photo Cropping

Lock the crop box to 1:1 to keep your face centered within circular avatar frames used on most platforms. Location coordinates and camera details are stripped automatically from the exported file to protect your privacy.

Widescreen Crop for Web Headers

Select the 16:9 preset and adjust the bounding box to frame landscapes or workspace photos without distortion. Specify exact target pixel dimensions such as 1920x1080 to match your website layout requirements precisely.

Vertical 9:16 Crop for Short-Form Video

Use the 9:16 preset to frame a tall composition that fills mobile screens without any content being cut off. Export as WebP or PNG for sharp, lightweight images suitable for video thumbnails and story covers.
