Open Image Cropper →Most platforms display avatars in a circle but crop them from a square you upload, and their auto-crop regularly slices foreheads or off-centers faces. Cropping the picture yourself first, either into a circle with a transparent background or into a well-framed square, means what you upload is what people see. A circular PNG is also exactly what you need for slides, email signatures and website team pages.
The circle crop exports a PNG, because PNG supports transparency: everything outside the circle is see-through, so the avatar sits cleanly on any background color. The whole edit runs in your browser, which matters more for profile photos than most images, since they are literally pictures of you.
