Cropping removes the parts of an image you do not want, tightening the composition or fitting a required shape like a square avatar or a 16:9 thumbnail. This cropper gives you a draggable selection box right on the picture, with handy preset ratios.
How to crop an image
- Upload the image you want to crop.
- Drag the selection box and handles to frame the area to keep.
- Pick a preset ratio (1:1, 4:3, 16:9) or crop freely.
- Click Crop and download just the selected region.

Frequently asked questions
Does cropping reduce resolution?
Cropping keeps the original pixel density of the area you select; you simply discard the rest. The kept region is as sharp as the source.
Can I crop to an exact square for an avatar?
Yes — choose the 1:1 preset and the selection box stays perfectly square as you drag.
What format is the output?
The crop is exported as PNG to stay lossless; convert it to JPG or WebP afterwards if you want a smaller file.
