How to crop

Open your image and drag the corners or edges of the crop box. Move the box to frame the part you want to keep. When it looks right, apply the crop and download the new image.

Free mode lets you choose any shape. Fixed ratios keep the box at a set shape while you resize it: 1:1 for square profile pictures, 4:3 and 3:4 for standard photos in landscape or portrait, 16:9 for wide screens, and 35:45 for the portrait shape used by many photo forms.

Cropping a photo for an application form

For a head-and-shoulders photo, choose 35:45, then place the box so your face is centred with a little space above your head. Many forms describe how much of the frame the face should fill. Follow the instructions given by the form you are using, as they vary.

Cropping is also the best first step before shrinking a file. Removing background you do not need makes the image smaller, so it keeps more detail when you later compress it to a KB limit.

Private and quick

The crop is made in your browser, so the photo is not uploaded. Cropping does not enlarge anything; the kept area stays at its original pixel detail.

Questions, answered

What is the 35:45 ratio?
It is a portrait shape 35 units wide by 45 units tall, the shape of a common 35 by 45 mm photo. It does not set the pixel size; resize afterwards if a form asks for exact pixels.
How do I make a square profile picture?
Choose the 1:1 ratio, place the box over your face, and apply the crop.
Does cropping reduce the quality?
No. It removes the outer parts of the picture. The area you keep has the same detail as before.
Can I crop and then compress to a KB limit?
Yes. Crop first, then use the compress or resize image tool. Cropping first usually gives a sharper result at the same size.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. The photo is cropped inside your browser on your device.
