FAQ
Do you upload my images?
No. Processing happens locally in your browser. Your files are not uploaded.
Crop vs Pad?
Crop fills the target size (may cut edges). Pad fits the whole image and adds background/empty space.
JPG or PNG?
JPG is best for photos (smaller files). PNG is best for text/logos or when you need transparency.
Why does the output look blurry?
Use a higher-resolution source, increase JPG quality (90–95), or use PNG for text/logos.
Why choose Crop?
Crop fills the target size for a native full-frame look, but may cut edges.
