Good to know
Cropping removes the parts of a photo you don't want and can change its shape at the same time. Pick a shape first, then drag the box to frame your subject. Drag a corner to make the box bigger or smaller; the shape stays locked while you do.
Circle crops are saved as PNG so the area outside the circle is transparent, ready to drop onto any background. Other crops keep the original format, and the crop is taken from the full-resolution photo, so nothing gets blurrier.
If a form asks for an exact size in pixels or kilobytes, crop here first and then use Resize image to hit the numbers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I crop a photo online?
Drop the photo in, pick a shape, drag the box over the part you want and download.
How do I crop a picture into a circle?
Choose Circle, drag the circle over the part you want, and download. You'll get a PNG with a transparent background.
How do I crop a photo to a square?
Choose Square. The box keeps its shape while you drag a corner, so the result is always exactly square.

Crop the part you want here, then use Resize image to set the exact pixels or KB.
Does cropping reduce quality?
No. The crop is cut from your full-resolution photo and saved at high quality.

Are my photos uploaded to crop them?
