"Why Choose Crip Circle Image?"

What if you want to choose a Blood Circle Image? Gang rivalries are fierce

I was so hoping this was going to emulate aliens/trolling-farmers mowing a simplified version of the image into a field.

Is it possible to fill the outside part with a plain color instead of transparent?

It's weird that the zoom does nothing when it's too small. I understand that it's to make the scaled image larger than the cropping area, but it would be better to change the minimal value in the slide bar.

I will add this options :)

I have used ffmpeg for presenting circular images, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63997289/can-you-crop-a-...

This requires having a second image to use as a mask. With imagemagick, you can have it draw the circle used as the mask without needing a separate file. This would allow for extra flexibility of not having to resize (especially scaling up) the mask.

ffmpeg is pretty good for resizing images...and can rasterize vector images.

For me, the advantage of ffmpeg is in the future I can just google what I want to do. That is easier than finding a bookmark and even if I find it, it might not exist anymore.

are you suggesting you can't google imagemagick? i don't get the logic

Very cool and simple service! I like that the edit is performed client side.
