Circle Crop Image

Runs in your browser — your files are never uploaded.

Turn any photo into a round image with genuinely transparent corners — the shape a profile picture, avatar or logo badge needs. The largest centred square is taken first so faces are not stretched, then masked to a circle with a smooth antialiased edge. The result is always a PNG, because transparency is the whole point and JPEG has no alpha channel to store it in. Runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the output always a PNG?+

Because the corners have to be transparent, and JPEG has no alpha channel. A circular JPEG would have white or black corners, which defeats the purpose everywhere it is used.

Will my photo be squashed?+

No. The largest centred square is cropped first and the circle is masked from that, so the aspect ratio is preserved and a portrait is not distorted into a circle.

What size should I use for a profile picture?+

400×400 covers most platforms comfortably. Larger is rarely useful since services downscale on upload, and smaller than 200×200 tends to look soft on high-density screens.

Are the edges jagged?+

No. The circle is composited rather than clipped, which gives a properly antialiased edge — clipping produces visible stair-stepping in several browsers.
