To obtain fast loading web images users often need to crop their pictures to fit the rules imposed by webmasters to speed up their website. Images used nowadays have often a very high resolution and loading them takes a huge amount of time. This is why webmasters usually restricts their dimensions and require the user to crop their image to ensure its fast loading. This calls for a picture crop tool - and although there are several online image crop scripts available - the most efficient and complete solution is offered by Kroppr.

Installed on your domain, it will allow your visitors to rotate, zoom and crop images in real time without extra load on your server.

The utility of Kroppr goes beyond the mere functionality of an image rotation crop script like wallpaper resize and rotate script. It is extremely user-friendly and it does NOT require any additional plug-ins (such as Java or Flash) for rotating images. While many other online image crop scripts are difficult to use due to the limitations of their interfaces, Kroppr uses slides to help the user resize and zoom the image. Rotating the image, or just a part ...
... of it, is also a very user-friendly operation due to its visual approach. This is why Kroppr is perceived as a usable avatar or wallpaper maker, helping users to manipulate images in order to create avatars, wallpapers, calendars, postcards, etc.

The dimension of the images is not a problem while using Kroppr because the script adapts itself to the image size. It is also useful when working with small thumbnail images that link to bigger images because the script will crop and resize the big image and not the thumbnail, allowing you to obtain a high quality result. Although it's an online image crop tool, Kroppr allows you to save the resulted image to your hard drive for later use. It also allows you to reset all the changes and start cropping again.

One of the biggest advantage of using Kroppr as your image rotation crop script consists in the simplicity of its installation. The graphic tools needed for it to run properly are already installed on any common hosting server so there is no need to pay extra to allow Kroppr to run on your domain. Depending on the graphical packages installed on your server (ImageMagic, NetPBM, RSVG or GD2), this crop script will always choose the best solution that will ensure the quality of the resulted image and a minimal server load. All these advantages will transform picture cropping into a simple and fun operation that can be performed by any website visitor.

Forget about complicated and difficult to install picture crop tools! Allow your users to manipulate images on your website while guaranteeing the fun and simplicity of the operations required
