Questions

Can I crop a GIF and keep it moving?

Yes. Every frame is cropped and keeps its own colours, timing and loop. Animated WEBP and PNG (APNG) files keep moving too. Straightening or a shape makes a GIF's colours again; a plain crop or a turn doesn't.

Will my GIF get bigger or lose colours?

No colours change in a plain crop or turn, and the file usually gets smaller because it holds fewer pixels. GIFs can be up to 1,000 frames.

Which animations can I crop?

GIF, animated WEBP and animated PNG (APNG) keep moving. An animated AVIF gives its first frame only. You can also drop any still picture here.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Cropping happens in your browser, on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Is anything of the cut-away part left in the file?

No. Hidden previews of the whole photo, old edit history and anything stored after the end of the picture are removed, and every file is checked before you get it. SVG is the one exception: it stays a drawing, so the parts outside the box are hidden, not removed. Save it as PNG to remove them.

Can I crop someone else's photo?

Only if you have the right to use it. Cutting a photographer's credit or watermark out of their picture can break copyright law in many countries.
