Image Cropper
Trim an image down to exactly the area you want. This free image cropper lets you set the x, y, width and height in pixels, crops it instantly, and gives you a download. It runs entirely in your browser.
Choose an image to see its pixel dimensions.
What is an image cropper?
An image cropper cuts an image down to a smaller rectangle of pixels. You choose the top-left corner (x and y) and the size (width and height) of the region to keep, and the tool redraws just that area onto a new canvas. Many simple photo editors make you drag a box by feel, which is imprecise when you need a specific region for a card, an avatar, or an API that expects exact dimensions. This tool takes exact pixel coordinates, so you can specify a crop precisely and repeatably. When you load an image its natural width and height are shown and the crop fields are populated so you can start from a full image and shrink it. The result is a lossless crop — the pixels you keep are exactly as they were, with no re-compression or quality loss — and you download it as a PNG.
How to use
- Choose an image; its pixel dimensions are shown automatically.
- Enter the x, y, width and height for the area you want to keep.
- Click Crop image, then Download to save the result.
Example
Load a 1000×800 image and set x=100, y=100, width=500, height=400. The crop returns a 500×400 PNG containing the region starting 100px in from each corner; the output size is shown before you download.
Who is this image cropper for?
- Designers: They cut a canvas to an exact rectangle for a banner, card or avatar slot, using precise pixel coordinates.
- Content creators: They trim the edges of a photo to focus on the subject and remove distracting background.
- Photographers: They crop a frame to a standard ratio without re-encoding, so the kept pixels stay lossless.
- Marketers: They prepare consistent same-size thumbnails for grids, product pages and social posts.
Common crop sizes and ratios
| Aspect ratio | Typical dimensions | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 1:1 | 1080 × 1080 | Avatar, profile, feed grid |
| 4:5 | 1080 × 1350 | Instagram portrait |
| 1.91:1 | 1200 × 628 | Social / Open Graph preview |
| 16:9 | 1920 × 1080 | YouTube thumbnail, hero |
| 3:2 | 1500 × 1000 | Photo print, DSLR frame |

Common use cases
- Cutting an image to exact pixel dimensions for a card, banner or thumbnail slot.
- Removing unwanted edges, borders or background before publishing.
- Producing consistent, same-size crops for a grid, product page or avatar.
- Preparing an image for an API or UI that requires a specific crop size.
Pro tips
- Read the shown image dimensions first so your crop stays inside the image.
- Set width and height to the exact pixels you need for the slot you are filling.
- Values are clamped to the image bounds, so a too-large crop won't break the output.
- Pair with the image resizer if you need a different final file size after cropping.
FAQ
How do I crop an image?
Choose an image, type the x, y, width and height of the region you want to keep, then click Crop. Download the resulting image when ready.
What units are the crop values in?
Pixels. The x and y set the top-left corner and the width and height set the size of the crop area.
Does cropping lose image quality?
No. The cropped image keeps the exact pixels of the region you choose, with no re-compression or quality loss.
What happens if my crop is larger than the image?
The values are clamped to the image bounds so the crop stays within the picture.
What format is the output?
The cropped result is saved as a PNG, for a lossless copy of the selected area.
Is it free and private?
Yes. It is free, unlimited, and runs entirely in your browser so your images never leave your device.
Do I need to know pixel coordinates?
Not really — load the image to see its dimensions and start from the full image, then reduce the values to the area you want.
How is cropping different from resizing?
Cropping removes pixels to keep a smaller area; resizing scales the whole image down or up.
