How to round corners

  1. Drop the image.
  2. Pick the radius.
  3. Press Apply and download the PNG.

What happens to your file

A rounded-rectangle mask is drawn at the radius you chose — a per cent of the shorter side, so it suits a thumbnail and a poster alike — and the picture is cut to it: inside stays, outside becomes transparent. The result is always a PNG, because JPG has no transparency. Round on a square picture gives a circle; on a wide one, a pill.

Questions

Can the outside be white instead of transparent?

Convert the PNG to JPG afterwards — the transparent area is flattened onto white.

A circle from a photo that is not square?

Crop image to 1:1 first, then Round with the largest radius.

Do this in code

The same operation, image.effect — Four small edits: rounded corners (with transparency), a border, a pixelation, a blur — sizes as a per cent of the shorter side. Upload first with the quickstart; every option is on the operations page. 500 free credits a month, then $5 per thousand.
