Give a photo rounded corners without Photoshop or CSS

Trying to give an image rounded corners in Photoshop or by using CSS was one of the hardest things for me to do when I used to have my own web design business. I actually hated trying to create those curved corners because they never came out exactly right!

And even if they did, the background color would change and I would have to edit the images over and over. I was always hoping someone would create a script or program that would automatically create rounded corners for me!

RoundPic is a free service that answered my call! Using RouncPic, you can take a normal picture and give it rounded corners instantly! Not only that, the background is transparent, so you can put the image against any background color without having to modify anything.

Here is what my image looks like before I added rounded corners to it using RoundPic:

And here is my picture after I used RoundPic:

Pretty easy eh! Not only does it do a great job using just the default settings, but you can also configure many options to make the rounded corners look exactly the way you want. At the top left, you can choose which corners should be rounded (does not have to be all four), the width and height of the image, the size of the rounded corner and also the background color or whether you want to make it transparent.

Since I found this site, I have never bothered creating rounded corners using CSS, HTML tricks, Photoshop or Javascript! It’s just a waste of time since this site can do everything for you! Enjoy!
