- Upload your image: Select a photo from your computer, tablet or mobile device.
- Select a crop ratio: Choose free crop, square, landscape, widescreen or portrait.
- Mark the area: Drag across the image to select the section you want to keep.
- Crop and preview: Click Crop Image to generate a new image from your selection.
- Download: Choose PNG, JPG or WebP and save the cropped image to your device.
How To Crop an Image?
To crop an image online, upload your photo to the cropper above. Choose an aspect ratio if you need a specific shape, such as a square profile picture or a wide landscape image. Then place your cursor on the image, press and drag to draw a selection around the area you want to keep.
After making the selection, click the Crop Image button. Review the new preview to make sure important details have not been cut off. If the selection is not right, use Reset Selection and draw it again. When you are satisfied with the result, download your cropped image in your preferred format.
For the best result, leave a little space around faces, products or text when appropriate. If you are cropping a product photograph for an online shop, keep the product centred and avoid cutting off edges that help customers understand the item. If the image will be used on a website, choose dimensions and a format that suit the intended layout.
Crop Images Free with Our Online Photo Cropper
Our free online photo cropper provides a straightforward way to edit images for websites, social media, presentations, documents and online stores. You can use a free-form selection when you want full control, or choose a fixed aspect ratio for a consistent shape. The tool supports common image formats that your browser can open and lets you download the result as PNG, JPG or WebP.
Image cropping is different from image resizing. Cropping removes areas outside your selection, while resizing changes the dimensions of the entire image. Cropping can help focus attention on the main subject, remove distracting backgrounds around the edges, and prepare images for layouts that require a specific shape.
For example, a square crop can work well for profile photos, while a wide crop may suit a website banner. A portrait crop may be useful for a person or product image. The best aspect ratio depends on where the image will appear, so preview the result before using it.
Why Use the AjazMD Image Cropper?
- Free to use: Crop images without a paid editing application.
- Browser-based: Work directly in a modern web browser.
- Flexible selection: Choose a free-form area or a common aspect ratio.
- Multiple output formats: Save as PNG, JPG or WebP.
- Simple workflow: Upload, select, crop, preview and download.
- Privacy-focused: Image processing takes place locally in your browser; this code does not upload your image to an AjazMD server.
Keep in mind that cropping does not improve the original image's resolution or restore missing details. It simply creates a new image from the selected area. Very large images may use significant browser memory, so use a smaller image if your device struggles to process it.

The tool accepts browser-supported image files and can export the cropped result as PNG, JPG or WebP, depending on your browser support.
4. Can I crop an image into a square?
Yes. Select Square (1:1) from the aspect ratio menu and draw your crop selection on the image.
5. Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. This tool uses browser image and canvas features to process the selected image locally. The code does not send the image to an AjazMD server.

Yes. The interface is responsive and supports touch selection in modern mobile browsers. Larger files may require more memory.
7. Does cropping reduce image quality?
PNG is suitable when you want to avoid lossy compression. JPG and WebP quality settings affect the exported result. The cropped area also has fewer pixels than the original image if you remove part of it.

This tool crops an image rather than providing exact output-width and output-height resizing controls. Use an image resizer when you need specific pixel dimensions.
