Which image formats can I crop?

You can upload JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, and GIF files up to 100 MB. The output format matches your input — a JPEG stays JPEG, a PNG stays PNG.

How does the crop work?

The tool center-crops your image to the selected aspect ratio using the largest possible rectangle centered on your image. For example, cropping a 4:3 landscape photo to 1:1 square takes the center square of the image.

Will I lose image quality?

JPEG outputs are saved at 92% quality — visually identical to the source. PNG, WebP, AVIF, and TIFF outputs are losslessly processed with the same codec settings as the input.

Can I crop to a custom pixel size?

Currently the tool supports seven common aspect ratios. For pixel-precise custom crops, a desktop tool like GIMP, Photoshop, or the Sharp CLI is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which image formats are supported?

You can upload JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, and GIF files up to 100 MB. The output format automatically matches your input — a JPEG stays JPEG, a PNG stays PNG.

How does the center-crop work?

The tool calculates the largest rectangle of your chosen aspect ratio that fits within the image, then extracts it from the center. No stretching or padding — only pixels from the original image are used.

Will the cropped image lose quality?

No. The crop is performed by extracting a pixel region — no re-sampling or lossy re-encoding takes place for the cropped area. JPEG outputs are saved at 92% quality, which is visually lossless.

Can I crop to a custom pixel dimension?

This tool crops to aspect ratios, not pixel sizes. The output dimensions depend on how large a crop of the chosen ratio fits in your original image. For pixel-precise crops, try GIMP or Photoshop.

Is my image kept private?

Yes. Your uploaded image and the cropped output are automatically deleted from our servers within 60 minutes. We never store, sell, or analyse your files.
