    How to make a round profile picture

    1. Drop one or more JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, or AVIF images (up to 20).
    2. Drag the photo inside the circle and set zoom until the face or logo is centered.
    3. Pick a diameter — 128, 256, 400, 512, 1000 px — or type a custom size.
    4. Keep transparent corners (PNG) or choose a solid background; add a border ring if you like.
    5. Click Download PNG, or Download all (ZIP) for a batch.

    When a circle-cropped PNG helps

    • ✅ Team / about pages — consistent round headshots at the same pixel size
    • ✅ Email signatures, slides, and docs — round photos that sit cleanly on any background
    • ✅ Community avatars and bots — exact 128/256/512 px round icons
    • ✅ Logos and badges — circular brand marks with an optional colored ring

    Honest note: LinkedIn, Instagram, Zoom, and most social apps already crop your square photo to a circle and may flatten transparency — upload a well-centered square there. A pre-cut round PNG matters most where you place the image.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    Q: How do I crop a photo into a circle online for free?

    A: Drop a JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, or AVIF, drag the photo inside the circle, adjust zoom, pick a diameter (e.g. 400 or 512 px), then click Download PNG. Free, no signup, runs in your browser.

    Q: Does the circle crop tool upload my photos?

    A: No. Positioning, circle masking, and ZIP creation run locally with HTML canvas. Photos are not uploaded to our servers.

    Q: Will the corners be transparent?

    A: Yes, by default — PNG output keeps everything outside the circle transparent. JPG cannot store transparency, so choosing JPG uses a solid background color you pick.

    Q: What size should a round profile picture be?

    A: Most sites ask for a square image and show it as a circle. 400–1000 px is a safe range for social and team profiles; 128 or 256 px suits small avatars and icons. Presets are 128, 256, 400, 512, and 1000 px, or any custom size from 16 to 4096 px.

    Q: Do I need to circle crop a photo before uploading it to LinkedIn, Instagram, or Zoom?

    A: Usually not — those platforms crop a square photo to a circle themselves, and some flatten transparent corners. A round PNG is most useful for websites, email signatures, slides, docs, and team pages. For platform uploads, a well-centered square works best.

    Q: Can I circle crop multiple images at once?

    A: Yes — up to 20 JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, or AVIF images. Each keeps its own zoom and position; Apply to all copies one framing to every photo, then Download all (ZIP). iPhone HEIC and AVIF decode in your browser — no convert-first step.

    Q: Can I add a border ring or background color?

    A: Yes. Set a ring width (px) and color, and optionally switch from transparent corners to a solid background. The ring is drawn inside the circle, so the output stays exactly your chosen diameter.

    Q: What formats are supported?

    A: Input: JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, and AVIF. Output: PNG (transparent or solid) or JPG (solid). HEIC/AVIF decode in your browser — no convert-first step. (Need a standalone JPG? Use HEIC to JPG.) If the crop is smaller than the output diameter it is upscaled and may look soft.
