About the Image Cropper
The Image Cropper on Toolzylo lets you crop any image directly in your browser by dragging a selection rectangle on the canvas. No software installation, no server upload — just upload, drag to select, and download your cropped PNG.
Cropping is one of the most common image editing tasks. Whether you need to remove unwanted borders, focus on a specific subject, resize a photo for a profile picture, or prepare an image for a specific aspect ratio, this tool handles it instantly. The dashed overlay shows exactly what will be cropped before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I select the crop area?
After uploading, click and drag on the canvas to draw a selection rectangle. You can redraw it as many times as you like before downloading.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. All cropping happens in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device.
What format is the cropped image?
The cropped image is downloaded as a PNG file.
What image formats can I upload?
JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF files are all supported as input. The output is always PNG.
Can I crop to a specific size?
The crop area you draw determines the output size. For a precise final size, use this tool to crop first, then use the Image Resizer to scale to exact pixel dimensions.
Why does the output file size differ from the original?
The cropped image is re-encoded as PNG, so file size reflects the dimensions of the cropped area. Smaller crop areas produce smaller files. Use the Image Compressor if you need to reduce file size further.
