About This Tool

Inspect and prepare square release artwork before a distributor submission.

The tool reads image dimensions, format, size, and detectable transparency locally. Reposition a non-destructive square crop, then export a 3000x3000 RGB JPEG without changing the source file.

Practical tips

Start with an original image at least 3000 pixels on both sides.
Keep important type and faces away from the crop edges.
Review rights, licensing, visual content, spelling, and final distributor rules yourself.

Common questions

Is my artwork uploaded?

No. Inspection, crop preview, and JPEG creation run locally in your browser.

Does a clear report guarantee acceptance?

No. Technical dimensions and format can be checked locally, but rights, visual content, metadata, and distributor review still require human attention.

What happens to transparent areas?

The exported JPEG has no alpha channel, so transparent pixels are flattened onto a white background. The source image is not changed.
