Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between cropping and resizing? +
Cropping removes parts of an image to change its composition or aspect ratio — the remaining area keeps its original resolution. Resizing scales the entire image up or down without cutting anything.
What image dimensions should I use for social media? +
Instagram posts: 1080×1080 (1:1). Stories/Reels: 1080×1920 (9:16). YouTube thumbnails: 1280×720 (16:9). Twitter/X headers: 1500×500. LinkedIn posts: 1200×627.
How do I crop an image to a circle? +
First crop to a 1:1 square using this tool, then apply CSS border-radius: 50% in your website, or use an image editor to export with a circular mask as PNG with transparent background.
Will cropping reduce image quality? +
Cropping itself doesn't reduce quality — it only removes pixels. However, if you crop to a very small area and then enlarge it, you'll lose sharpness. Always start with the highest resolution source image.
Is my image uploaded to a server? +
No. Image processing runs entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your image is never sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy.
