How it works

  1. Add one image.
  2. Move the circle and drag its handles to choose the part to keep. Drag it into an oval if you like, and press Circle to make it round again.
  3. Optionally pick an output size, then choose PNG or WebP.
  4. Press Crop, then download the file.

FAQ

Why only PNG and WebP?
The area outside the circle is transparent, and JPG cannot store transparency.
What does the output size do?
It scales the longest side of the result to 256, 512 or 1024 pixels, which suits profile pictures. "As cropped" keeps the pixels inside the circle without scaling.
Can I get an oval?
Yes. Drag a handle without a fixed shape and the circle becomes an oval. Press Circle to snap it back.
Are the edges smooth?
Yes. The edge is anti-aliased, so it blends into any background.
