Select a square area and download a circular PNG with transparent corners. Open Circle Image Cropper.
Position the round selection
Open Circle Image Cropper and select Choose images, drag in a supported file, or use the sample. On a phone, open Settings to reach the same controls.
Move and resize the circular selection so the subject fits comfortably inside it.
The corners outside the circle become transparent in PNG. Check hair, ears and shoulders near the circular edge.
Keep enough space around the subject
Review the circle at the size it will actually be used. Small avatars need a simple, centered composition.
The circular crop is not background removal: the background inside the circle remains.
