Non-Destructive Photo Cropping

Feature

Week of April 11, 2026

Photo management gets a major upgrade with non-destructive, metadata-based cropping for both profile media and profile photos.

Crop any photo — hover over a photo in the media grid and click the crop icon to adjust framing
Use as profile photo — set any media item as the profile photo with a custom crop
Re-crop anytime — crop your profile photo directly from the avatar card, as many times as you want
Non-destructive — the original image is always preserved; crops can be adjusted or reset at any time
GIF support — GIF images can now be uploaded as advocate media
“Avatar” renamed to “Profile Photo” throughout the UI for clarity

Available for both community admins and advocates.
