About Circle Crop Image
This tool masks your image with a perfect circle and exports a PNG with a fully transparent background outside the circle. You can move and zoom the image inside the circle to frame faces and subjects exactly the way you want before exporting.
Round avatars are required by most social platforms and are a clean choice for team pages and testimonials. Because the crop runs locally, your photo is never uploaded and the exported PNG drops straight into any profile uploader.
How to use Circle Crop Image
- Add your photo
Drop an image and the circular crop frame appears. Drag to reposition and use the zoom slider to frame the subject.
- Adjust the framing
Move the image so the face or logo is centred, and zoom until the circle is filled the way you want.
- Export the round PNG
Download a transparent PNG. Optionally add a coloured ring or a solid background behind the circle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the exported image have a transparent background?
Yes. Everything outside the circle is fully transparent, so the PNG sits cleanly on any background colour. You can also optionally paint a solid colour or a ring border behind the circle before downloading.
What size should a profile picture be?
For most social platforms 400x400 to 512x512 pixels is ideal, which gives a crisp result on high-density screens without an unnecessarily large file. The tool exports at the resolution of your source image.
Can I add a coloured border to the circle?
Yes. Enable the ring option and choose its colour and thickness. The border is drawn inside the exported PNG, so it survives uploads that otherwise crop circular avatars.
