What the GIF Cropper does
Cut away the edges of an animated GIF and keep only the area you need, across all frames at once. Useful for removing black bars, borders or captions burned into the edge of a reaction GIF.
Options
- Left (X) and Top (Y) set the corner of the area to keep; Width and Height set its size in pixels.
Good to know
The crop rectangle must fit inside the GIF; values beyond the edges are rejected with an explanation.
