Round the corners of an image
Radius 0–500 px, non-destructive. Local processing, nothing uploaded.
Draw a rounded rectangle, put the image on the layer above, press Ctrl+Alt+G — done.
Three steps. ① Draw a rectangle with the rectangle tool and set Corner in the properties panel on the right to the value you want — 0 to 500 pixels, typed in directly or scrubbed by dragging the label sideways. ② Move the image to the layer above that rectangle. ③ Press Ctrl+Alt+G (⌥⌘G on a Mac) and the image is clipped to the rounded shape; the layer panel's right-click menu has "Create clipping mask" too. There is no one-click round-corner button here, and those two extra steps buy you two things: a radius exact to the pixel, and non-destructive editing — a clipping mask only covers, not a pixel is lost, and pressing Ctrl+Alt+G again releases it. Exported PNGs are transparent outside the rounded corners, so they drop onto any background without a white fringe. It all runs in your own browser; the image is never uploaded.

FAQ
- Is there a one-click round-corner button?
- No. It takes three steps: draw a rounded rectangle, put the image on the layer above it, press Ctrl+Alt+G (⌥⌘G on a Mac). Those two extra steps buy you a radius exact to the pixel and the ability to release it at any time.
- How do I make a circular avatar?
- Set the corner radius to half the side length and it becomes a circle. Or draw the mask with the ellipse tool instead — hold Shift while drawing to keep it a true circle — then press Ctrl+Alt+G.
- Are the corners actually cut off?
- No. A clipping mask is non-destructive: not a pixel of the image is lost, it is only covered. Press Ctrl+Alt+G again and the square corners are back. Exported PNGs are transparent outside the rounded corners.
- Is it free? Is my image uploaded?
- Free, no sign-up, no usage limit. Nothing is uploaded either — it all runs in your own browser.
