Javascript Image Editing Tool

David Spurr has built an Image Cropper using the Prototype Javascript Framework that allows for editing your images in your web browser. This means you can upload an image then crop or resize it before you send it to your Content Management System. Awesome!

It has nifty features like:

  • Image editing package styling & functionality, the crop area functions and looks like those found in popular image editing software
  • Dynamic inclusion of required styles
  • Drag to draw areas
  • Shift drag to draw/resize areas as squares
  • Selection area can be moved
  • Selection area can be resized using resize handles
  • Allows dimension ratio limited crop areas
  • Allows minimum dimension crop areas
