Image Cropper
Crop and resize images with custom aspect ratios
About the Image Cropper
Sometimes a photo just needs the right slice of it — a square for a profile picture, a 16:9 banner, or simply the distracting edges removed. The Image Cropper lets you draw a crop area on your image, lock it to a common aspect ratio, rotate or flip it, and download the result, all without uploading the file anywhere.
It fits the everyday cases: cropping a headshot to a clean 1:1 for a social avatar, trimming a screenshot down to the part that matters, or straightening a photo that was shot at an angle. The aspect-ratio presets — Free, 1:1, 16:9, 4:3, and 3:2 — cover the formats most platforms expect, and you can set exact pixel dimensions when you need a precise size.
How to Use the Image Cropper
- Upload an image by clicking or dragging it in — JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF are accepted.
- Pick an aspect ratio (Free, 1:1, 16:9, 4:3, or 3:2) or set custom width and height in pixels and click Apply.
- Drag and resize the crop box over the part of the image you want to keep.
- Use the rotate and flip buttons to adjust orientation if needed.
- Click Download PNG to save your cropped image.
Why Use ToolForge’s Image Cropper
- Your image is processed entirely in your browser on a canvas — it is never uploaded to a server, which keeps personal photos and screenshots private.
- Five aspect-ratio presets plus exact pixel dimensions cover both quick social crops and precise size requirements.
- Built-in rotate (90° steps) and horizontal/vertical flip let you fix orientation in the same step as cropping.
- There is no sign-up and no file-size gate in the interface, so you can crop and download in seconds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. The cropper reads your file locally and does all processing on an in-browser canvas. The image never leaves your device, which makes it safe for private photos, IDs, and confidential screenshots.
What image formats can I crop?
You can load JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF images. The cropped result is saved as a PNG file, which preserves quality and supports transparency.
How do I crop to an exact size in pixels?
Use the custom dimensions fields to enter a specific width and height (between 50 and 5000 pixels) and click Apply. The crop box will lock to those dimensions so your output matches the size you need.
Can I rotate or flip the image while cropping?
Yes. Rotate buttons turn the image in 90-degree steps, and separate buttons flip it horizontally or vertically, so you can correct orientation before downloading without a separate editor.
