About Crop Image

Crop Image cuts a rectangle out of a picture and discards the rest. Position and size are set in the picture's real pixels with four sliders, X, Y, Width, and Height, and a blue box on the preview shows the area that will be kept. Aspect ratio presets (1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16, 4:5, and 2:1) place the largest centered box of that shape in one step. There are no handles to drag on the image and no rotation. The crop is made in your browser.

How to crop an image

  1. 1Click the upload box and choose the picture; the crop box starts as the whole image.
  2. 2Optionally pick a shape in "Aspect ratio" to set the largest centered box of that ratio.
  3. 3Adjust "X", "Y", "Width", and "Height"; the blue box and the crop size above the sliders follow.
  4. 4Click "Crop image", then "Download"; a cropped JPG, PNG, or WebP keeps its format, any other format is saved as PNG.

Where your image is processed

Cropping happens on a canvas in this page, and the picture is not sent to a server or a third party. The cropped file sits in the tab until you download it. Should the tool display an error, the cleaned message, the tool's name, and the browser's name and version reach us, for debugging.

Frequently asked questions

Can I type exact numbers?

No. Position and size are set with sliders that move in single pixels of the real image, and each value is shown next to its slider. Click a slider and use the arrow keys for one-pixel steps.

Does a preset keep its ratio when I move the sliders?

No. A preset sets the box once; moving "Width" or "Height" afterward changes the shape freely. Pick the preset again to get the exact ratio back, then shift the box with "X" or "Y" if there is room.

Does the crop keep my format?

Yes for JPG, PNG, and WebP: a JPG stays a JPG at quality 92, a PNG keeps its transparency, a WebP stays a WebP. An animated GIF stays an animated GIF, with every frame cropped. A still GIF, BMP, and other formats are saved as PNG, and only the first frame of an animated WebP or PNG is kept.

Tips and tricks

  • ✓For a profile picture, choose "1:1 (square)" and shift "X" to center the face.
  • ✓For a phone story or reel cover, "9:16 (story)" gives the tallest centered box.
