Question 1

What’s the difference between cropping and resizing?

Accepted Answer

Cropping removes parts of an image to change its composition or aspect ratio. Resizing changes the pixel dimensions of the entire image without removing anything.

Question 2

Can I crop images without losing quality?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cropping itself does not reduce quality. However, if you crop a small area and then enlarge it, it may look pixelated. Always start with the highest quality image possible.

Question 3

Which aspect ratio should I use for social media?

Accepted Answer

Use 1:1 for Instagram posts, 9:16 for Stories/Reels, and 16:9 for YouTube thumbnails or landscape photos.

Question 4

Is cropping done in my browser?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all processing happens locally. Your images never leave your device.

Question 5

Can I use a grid overlay?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the "Rule of Thirds" grid overlay is enabled by default to help you compose balanced and professional-looking shots.
