Round profile picture

Add your photo: the circular crop is already selected. Move and resize the crop to centre what you want to show, then download a PNG with transparent corners. Everything is processed on your device.

HOW TO DO IT

Three steps.

  1. Add your photo

    JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 30 MB and 40 megapixels.

  2. Adjust the circle

    Move and resize the crop. You can also use the keyboard.

  3. Download the PNG

    The file is square with transparent corners: it looks round when placed on a background.

WHEN TO USE IT

A circular photo for your designs

Profiles and avatars

Centre the face before using it in an account or a listing. Some platforms crop the image again when you upload it.

Signatures and presentations

Place the PNG on a coloured background: the transparent corners let the design below show through.

REAL LIMITS

Why the download is a PNG

JPG cannot store transparency

The circle is always exported as a PNG. Converting it to JPG later will remove the transparent corners.

Resolution depends on your photo

The crop preserves the pixels in the selected area. A small photo does not gain detail when cropped.

Round profile picture: common questions

How do I make my photo round?

Add your photo, adjust the circle and press “Crop image”. Download the resulting PNG.

Why is the file still square?

Image files have a rectangular width and height. Pixels outside the circle are transparent, so it looks round when placed on a background.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The crop is processed in your browser.

Can I switch back to a rectangular crop?

Yes. Change “Shape” to “Rectangle” inside the tool.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. Everything happens inside your browser: the file is read and processed on your device and is not sent to Cocuyo or to any third party. You can check it in your browser’s network tools: your file is not sent.

Is it really free?

Yes. You can try it before signing up; to download the result we ask for a free account, with no subscription. Your free account comes with 30 welcome uses; after that, each use costs 1 credit (top-ups from US$1), and they are unlimited with Basic or Pro. It never adds a watermark.
