How do I crop an image online?

Upload your image to kinja-img.com, then use URL parameters like w_800,h_600,c_fill to crop to 800x600. The c_fill parameter crops to exact dimensions.

What crop modes are available?

Three modes: c_fill (crop to exact size), c_fit (fit within dimensions keeping ratio), and c_scale (stretch to exact size). Use g_ parameter to control crop gravity.

Can I crop to specific aspect ratios?

Yes! Use width and height parameters with c_fill. For 1:1 square use w_500,h_500,c_fill. For 16:9 use w_1600,h_900,c_fill.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I crop an image to a specific size?

Upload your image, then add w_WIDTH,h_HEIGHT,c_fill to the URL. For example, w_800,h_600,c_fill crops to exactly 800x600 pixels.

What's the difference between c_fill and c_fit?

c_fill crops to exact dimensions, cutting off parts that don't fit. c_fit resizes to fit within the dimensions without cropping, maintaining the original aspect ratio.

How do I control which part of the image is kept?

Use the gravity parameter: g_north (top), g_south (bottom), g_east (right), g_west (left), or g_center (default). This determines which part of the image is kept when cropping.

Can I crop to a square?

Yes! Use equal width and height values: w_500,h_500,c_fill creates a perfect square crop. Great for profile pictures and Instagram posts.
