How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter Image Width and Image Height.
  2. Review Golden Ratio Crop (px) and Area Removed by Crop (%).
  3. Use Golden Crop Aspect Ratio and Rule of Thirds Grid to inform your decision.

What each input means

Image Width
Original image width in pixels.
Image Height
Original image height in pixels.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    Image Width = 6000, Image Height = 4000 = 2 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Golden Ratio Crop
    Golden Ratio Crop = `${goldenWidth
    6000 x 3708 = 6000 x 3708
  3. Calculate Area Removed by Crop
    Area Removed by Crop
    7.3 = 7.3
  4. Calculate Golden Crop Aspect Ratio
    Golden Crop Aspect Ratio = `1:${round(phi * 1000) / 1000
    1:1.618 = 1:1.618
  5. Calculate Rule of Thirds Grid
    Rule of Thirds Grid = `Vertical lines at ${thirdW
    Vertical lines at 2000px, 4000px | Horizontal lines at 1333px, 2666px = Vertical lines at 2000px, 4000px | Horizontal lines at 1333px, 2666px
