Image Cropper

Crop to a fixed ratio

Add one image or a batch, choose an aspect ratio, then frame each crop. Cropping changes the composition by removing pixels outside the selected frame; it does not stretch the image.

Each file gets its own card with Center, Edit, Download, and Include controls. Use Center all when the subjects are already centered, or open Edit to pan and zoom a specific image.

Ratio choices

Pick the ratio from the final slot where the image will appear:

  • 1:1 for square thumbnails, profile images, and product grids.
  • 4:5 for portrait feed images.
  • 9:16 for vertical stories, reels, and shorts covers.
  • 16:9 for video thumbnails, slides, and wide article images.
  • 3:2 and 4:3 for photo and editorial crops.
  • 21:9, 2:1, and 2.35:1 for banners and cinematic headers.

Locked ratio variant pages skip this choice and open directly to one target ratio.

Manual framing

The crop editor stores the center point and zoom for each image. Drag to move the subject inside the frame, then zoom when the ratio needs a tighter crop.

Manual framing matters most with extreme ratios. A centered 9:16 crop can cut off the sides of a landscape photo, and a 21:9 crop can remove heads or foreground detail if the subject sits high or low in the image.

Batch export

Use the Include checkbox to decide which files go into the batch. A single card can be downloaded on its own, while Download all as ZIP exports every included crop.

Output filenames include the crop ratio, so a file such as hero.jpg becomes a ratio-labeled crop rather than overwriting the original.

Crop before resizing

Crop first when the composition is wrong. Resize afterward when the composition is right but the dimensions are still too large.

For example, crop a product photo to 1:1 before making 800px thumbnails. If you resize first and crop later, you may throw away detail that would have helped the final frame.

Source format and privacy

JPEG crops export as JPEG, PNG crops export as PNG, and WebP crops export as WebP. PNG and WebP can keep transparency when the source and browser encoder support it; JPEG cannot store an alpha channel.

The crop is produced with browser image decoding and canvas rendering. Files are not sent to a server.

Frequently Asked Questions

JPEG, PNG, and WebP. Each crop exports in the same format as the source file.

No.

Yes. Add multiple images, frame each one, choose which files to include, and download the included crops as a ZIP.

Presets include square, portrait, landscape, story, banner, print, and wide cinematic ratios such as 1:1, 4:5, 9:16, 16:9, 3:2, 4:3, 21:9, and 2.35:1.

The crop is drawn from the original pixels. The kept area stays at its cropped resolution, then the browser encodes it in the original format.

Yes. Paste with Ctrl/Command + V when your browser exposes the clipboard image as JPEG, PNG, or WebP.
