Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about aspect ratios, circular crops, and image formats.
How do the aspect ratio presets work in the Image Cropper?
Presets lock the crop box to standard proportions such as 1:1 (square profile photos & avatars), 16:9 (YouTube thumbnails & widescreen displays), 4:3 (photography), and 9:16 (vertical stories & reels). Selecting "Freeform" lets you drag any custom rectangle.
Can I export a circular avatar with a transparent background?
Yes. Toggle "Circular Avatar" to clip your image to a clean circle. When exporting as PNG or WebP, the area outside the circle remains completely transparent, ready for profile pictures on websites and apps.
What are the rule-of-thirds grid guides?
The 3×3 grid inside the crop boundary provides classic composition lines so you can align subjects, horizons, and faces symmetrically.
Are my uploaded photos sent to any remote server or stored in the cloud?
No. All cropping, rotation, and image export steps run strictly inside your web browser. No files or photos are ever uploaded across the internet.
What image formats and file sizes are supported?
Pinatool supports JPEG, PNG, WebP, SVG, and GIF images up to 50 MB. You can export the cropped result in PNG (lossless), WebP (compact), or JPEG (universal).
