01

Crop vs Resize — Know the Difference

Cropping removes unwanted areas from the edges of your photo, changing its composition without scaling. Resizing scales the entire image while keeping the same framing. Crop first, resize last.

02

Start with the Highest Resolution

Always upload the highest-resolution original photo you have. The more source pixels you start with, the crisper and sharper your cropped output will remain.

03

Use the Rule of Thirds

Use the grid lines inside the crop frame to place focal points along intersection lines. This creates naturally balanced, professional-looking compositions.

04

Check Platform Ratios

Different social media platforms have exact aspect ratio requirements. Use our preset ratios (1:1, 16:9, 9:16) to ensure your photo never gets cropped awkwardly.
