How To Create Circular Images In Picmonkey

Sunday, February 22, 2015

'scuse me, blogging friends, but do I ever have a tutorial for you!!!!!!

 
Haha, tricked ya.  It's not THAT exciting. 
 

 
Ok.  Maybe I was a little excited.
 Not to the point of vomiting, but, you know...
 

  1. Open your picture in Picmonkey (we're off to a riveting start, am I right? :D)
  2. If your picture is like mine, it'll be more rectangular than square.  You'll want to adjust the size by either cropping it into a square, or resizing it.  I just cropped mine to 2236x2056
  3. Once it's a decent-sized square, go to Frames and click on Rounded Corners (perfect for a sophisticated, well-rounded person like yourself).
  4. Check the box beside 'transparent corners'.
  5. Drag the corner radius as far as you need to to turn your square into a lovely little circle!


 
Congratulations!! And happy Sunday.

    Great tutorial! I think they also added a feature where you can do shape cutouts, so there's circles, stars, hearts, etc...but I'm really lazy and don't want to learn how to use that one just yet. :P Yay for rounded corners! :D
