Image Cropper & Resizer — Crop and Resize Images Online Free

Need to cut a photo down to its best part, or shrink it to exact dimensions for a website, avatar or marketplace listing? This free image cropper and resizer does both jobs in one place: upload a JPG, PNG or WebP file, frame the perfect crop, dial in precise pixel dimensions, and download the finished image — all without creating an account or sending your files anywhere.

Everything runs inside your own browser using the built-in canvas engine. There is no upload queue, no waiting room and no server that ever sees your pictures, which also means the tool keeps working at full speed no matter how many images you process.

How to Crop and Resize an Image

  1. Upload image — drag a JPG, PNG or WebP file into the upload area, click to browse, or paste an image straight from your clipboard.
  2. Adjust crop — drag on the preview to draw a crop box, drag inside it to reposition, and drag its corners or edges to fine-tune. Leave the full image selected to skip cropping.
  3. Set dimensions — enter the exact output width and height in the Resize panel. Aspect lock is on by default so proportions stay correct; the live output readout always shows the final pixel size.
  4. Choose output format — keep the original format or convert to JPG, PNG or WebP, with an adjustable quality slider for JPG and WebP.
  5. Download — click Download Image. The file is saved as yourname-cropped.jpg (or .png / .webp), ready to use.

Crop Images to a Specific Aspect Ratio

Different platforms demand different shapes: square avatars, widescreen banners, classic photo prints. The crop tool offers one-click presets — Free, 1:1, 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9 — plus a Custom mode where you type any width-to-height ratio of your own. Once a ratio is active, the crop box keeps that shape while you resize it, and a rule-of-thirds grid helps you compose a balanced framing.

Resize Images to Exact Dimensions

Marketplaces, ad platforms and content systems often require precise pixel sizes like 1200 × 800 or 1080 × 1080. Type the numbers you need: with the aspect lock on, changing the width recalculates the height automatically (and vice versa), so nothing ever stretches accidentally. Turn the lock off only when you intentionally want new proportions. The export is rendered at exactly the dimensions shown — the on-screen preview size never affects output quality.

Supported Image Formats

The tool handles the three formats that cover virtually every everyday image: JPG for photos and maximum compatibility, PNG for lossless quality and transparency, and WebP for the smallest modern files. Converting between them is built in, so a cropped PNG screenshot can be saved as a lightweight WebP in the same step. Note that JPG cannot store transparency — if your source has transparent areas and you export JPG, they are filled with a clean white background and the page tells you so upfront.

Privacy

Your image is processed locally in your browser and is not uploaded to our servers. Cropping, resizing and conversion happen on your device via the HTML canvas; closing the tab leaves nothing behind. If you need to change formats without editing dimensions, try the Image Converter, and to shrink file sizes without touching dimensions, try the Image Compressor. To inspect hidden EXIF or GPS data — or strip it before sharing — try the Image Metadata Viewer & Remover. Preparing an app icon or favicon? Crop the artwork to a square here first, then convert SVG to ICO at the sizes Windows expects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Upload a PNG, JPG or WebP image, then drag directly on the preview to draw a crop box. Drag inside the box to move it, or drag its corners and edges to resize it. Pick a preset like 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9 to lock the shape, or keep Free for any shape. Click Download Image to save the cropped result.

After uploading, enter the exact pixel width and height in the Resize panel — for example 1200 by 800. The live Output size readout always shows the final export dimensions, so what you see is exactly what gets saved. Exports are rendered at full resolution regardless of the on-screen preview size.

Yes. Crop first to frame the part of the photo you want, then set the resize dimensions to scale that selection to its final size. You can also crop only (the download keeps the crop size) or resize only (leave the crop box at the full image).

Keep Lock aspect ratio enabled — it is on by default. When locked, editing the width automatically recalculates the height (and vice versa) so the image never stretches or squashes. Turn the lock off only when you deliberately want to distort the image into different proportions.

Yes — JPG, PNG and WebP inputs are all supported, and you can export to the same format or convert between them. PNG and WebP exports preserve transparency; JPG does not support transparency, so transparent areas are filled with a white background on JPG export.

No. Cropping, resizing and format conversion all run locally in your browser using the HTML canvas. Your images are never uploaded to any server, so private photos stay on your device.
