This page opens the cropper with the Circle shape selected, so the frame is round rather than rectangular. Drag the frame and its corners to choose which part of the photo sits inside the circle. The result is saved as a transparent PNG, because the area outside the circle has to stay see-through.
Pick the shape before you drag the frame. Rotate 90° turns the photo clockwise if it is sideways, and Reset returns the photo, shape and frame to the start. For a square or another ratio, Crop image has the full list of shapes.
How to crop an image
- Drop a photo onto the box (or tap it to choose).
- Pick a shape first if you need one, then drag the frame or its corners, or type exact pixels.
- Download the cropped image. A circle is saved as a transparent PNG.
Questions
Can I use a circle crop as a profile picture?
A transparent PNG keeps the corners clear, so the circle does not show a box behind it. Check the size and format the site asks for first, because the tool does not know its rules.
Does the photo need to be square?
No. Drag the frame over the part you want, and the photo can be any shape or size.
Will my photo be uploaded?
No. Cropping happens in your browser, and the file never leaves your device.
Can I crop a passport photo?
Yes. Pick 35×45 mm and the frame keeps that 35:45 shape. The pixel size is the crop you make from your photo, so check the form for the print size, pixel size and background it requires, as they vary by country.
Why is a circle crop saved as PNG?
A circle needs transparent corners, and JPG has no transparency. PNG keeps them.
Does cropping reduce quality?
The output is the original pixels inside the frame, with no scaling. JPG and WebP are saved again at quality 0.92, which adds a little loss. Where your browser cannot save WebP, a WebP photo is saved as PNG or JPG instead. Rotate 90° turns the photo clockwise, and Reset returns to the original photo, shape and frame.
