About Crop Image

Cropping is the most common image edit there is: squaring an avatar, trimming dead space from a screenshot, or fitting a banner to a fixed ratio.

This tool overlays your selection on the image and lets you set it precisely in pixels or snap it to a standard aspect ratio, then exports just that region as PNG, JPEG or WebP.

How Crop Image works in your browser

The image is decoded in your browser and the selected region is drawn onto a canvas of exactly that size, then exported as PNG, JPEG or WebP. The selection can be set in pixels or locked to 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 3:2 or 9:16.

Pixels inside the selection are copied unchanged, but JPEG and WebP re-encode them. Choose PNG when you need to avoid any generation loss.

When to use it

  • Squaring a photo for a profile picture.
  • Trimming dead space from a screenshot before sharing it.
  • Cutting a banner to an exact aspect ratio.

Frequently asked questions

Can I lock to a common ratio?

Yes - 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 3:2 and 9:16 presets are available, along with a free-form mode.

How do I set the crop area?

Type the offset and size in pixels, or pick a ratio and use "centre selection". The highlighted overlay shows exactly what will be kept.

Is the crop lossless?

The pixels inside your selection are copied unchanged, but saving as JPG re-encodes them. Choose PNG to avoid any generation loss.
