Image Cropping vs Resizing

Cropping removes pixels outside your chosen rectangle. Resizing changes the dimensions of the whole picture. This tool crops at the selected image's original pixel resolution and does not artificially enlarge the result.

JPG, PNG and WebP Cropping

JPG is useful for photos but cannot retain transparent pixels. PNG preserves transparency and is suited to graphics and screenshots. WebP offers another output choice where supported by your browser. Animated files are not preserved as animation by this tool.

Crop Image FAQs

Common questions about online image cropping.

Can I crop a photo to a square?

Yes. Set Aspect Ratio to Square (1:1) and adjust the selection.

Will cropping reduce my image quality?

The selected pixels are drawn at their original resolution. JPG and WebP quality settings can introduce compression, while PNG output is lossless for this canvas export.

Can I crop a transparent PNG?

Yes. PNG output can retain transparent pixels. JPG output places them against the background color you select.

Are images uploaded to your server?

No. This cropper decodes and exports images in your browser using JavaScript Canvas.

Can I crop an animated WebP or GIF?

This tool exports only one still frame. It does not preserve animation.
