Image Grid Maker
Add a visible grid overlay to an image or create a simple tiled guide for layout review, cropping, and composition checks.
Drop an image here
JPG, PNG, WebP, SVG, GIF, and browser-readable images.
Use Image Grid Maker to add row and column guide lines to an image.
It helps check composition, crop planning, thumbnail framing, and social grid layouts.
Composition checks
Overlay thirds or simple grids before cropping.
Social layout planning
Check whether important content falls across grid boundaries.
Tutorial images
Add guides for explaining parts of an image.
Rule of thirds
Use a 3 x 3 grid to check visual balance.
Tutorial guide
Overlay a 4-column grid to explain image regions.
Limit
Grid lines become part of the exported image.
Exporting guides accidentally
The output includes grid lines; keep a clean original if you only need planning.
Using too many lines
Dense grids can make the image harder to read.
Choosing low contrast
Pick a grid color visible against the source image.
Crop planning
Check where subjects land before cropping.
Teaching
Add visual guides to explain image regions.
Social layout
Plan image grids for visual posts.
Design review
Discuss composition with simple overlays.
Does Image Grid Maker upload my image?
The public tool is designed for browser-side processing based on the current implementation. Avoid using sensitive images unless you have reviewed the implementation and your own data requirements.
Will metadata be preserved?
Canvas-based exports usually change or remove metadata. Keep the original file when metadata, color profiles, or exact camera details matter.
Why can a browser image tool fail?
Very large files, unusual formats, limited memory, unsupported browser encoders, or SVG features the browser cannot render can cause failures.
When should I use Image Grid Maker?
Use it when you need visible row and column guides on top of an image.
