A simple three-step workflow

  1. 1Pick portrait or square from the preset buttons.
  2. 2Drag the zoom and position controls until the crop feels balanced.
  3. 3Download a tile and repeat with the same settings for a matching set.
A couple of useful tips
  • Leave a little breathing room near the top and bottom; profile grids can preview a tighter crop.
  • For a multi-tile effect, keep horizons and faces away from the split lines.

Common questions

What size should a Instagram post image be?

For the most predictable result, start with 1080 × 1350 px or 1080 × 1080 px. The preset on this page applies those pixels for you.

Will my image be uploaded?

No. TulipTools draws and exports your image in your browser. The file never travels to a server.

Which formats can I export?

You can export JPG, PNG, or WebP. WebP is usually the smallest choice for websites and social uploads.

Can I keep the whole photo visible?

Yes. Switch the fit mode to Contain and choose a solid or blurred background so the full image stays in frame.
