Frequently asked questions

How do I crop an image into a circle?

Click "UPLOAD IMAGE" to choose a photo (or "Use demo image" to try it instantly), drag and resize the crop box over the area you want, then click "CROP CIRCLE". The tool cuts out a perfect circle and shows the result on the right, ready to download.

Will the area outside the circle be transparent?

Yes. Everything outside the circle is removed and replaced with transparency, so the corners of the image are fully see-through when you place it on any background.

What format is the circular image saved in?

PNG. PNG is the only common format that supports transparency, which is required for the area outside the circle to stay see-through.

Can I use this for a profile picture or social avatar, like Discord?

Yes — a transparent circular PNG is exactly the format most platforms want for profile pictures, avatars, and Discord icons, since the circle mask blends into any theme or background color.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The tool runs entirely in your browser and works on any modern mobile browser — you can upload a photo from your phone's gallery and crop it with touch gestures.
