Free Online Image Cropper — Preset Ratios & Custom Size
Need to crop an image for a square 1:1 avatar? Crop a video thumbnail to 16:9? Create a 9:16 TikTok image? PixLocal Crop Tool fully supports aspect ratio presets and allows entering exact dimensions — exporting to PNG with transparent fill.
2 Crop Modes
Drag Crop
Drag and drop to select the crop area on the image. Resize handles are available at the 4 corners and 4 edges.
Custom Size
Enter precise width × height in pixels. The image will be centered in the frame — the area outside the image will be transparent (PNG).

Special Features
Transparent Fill
When using a Custom Size larger than the original image, the empty space will be transparent — exporting PNG preserves the alpha channel. Extremely useful when you need an image with exact dimensions without stretching it.
Canvas Size
Place the image in a larger canvas — the image is centered with transparent surroundings. Unlike cropping (cutting away), canvas size expands the frame.
Image Information
Displays file name, file size, and original dimensions — convenient for reference when cropping.
