Built for the two most common reasons people split images, Instagram grids and carousels, plus general purpose slicing.
Grid, rows or columns
A full NxN grid for Instagram feed puzzles, horizontal strips for stacking, or vertical strips for carousel posts and panoramas.
Crop to shape first
Center-crop to square, landscape, portrait, widescreen or tall before slicing, so a grid split always produces evenly shaped pieces.
Numbered live preview
See exactly where every cut will land and which number each piece will get before you split anything, no guessing at posting order.
Download one or all
Grab a single piece with its own download button, or bundle every piece into one ZIP file with correctly numbered filenames.
Instagram ready presets
One-click 3 by 3 grid, 4 by 4 grid and 3 or 5 panel carousel presets set the right mode and piece count automatically.
Full resolution, every piece
No downscaling happens along the way, every piece is cut at the same pixel density as the source photo.
Instagram profile grid puzzles
Split one photo into a 3 by 3 or 4 by 4 grid, then post the pieces in order so the full image reassembles across your feed.
Carousel and panorama posts
Split a wide photo into equal vertical slides that read correctly as followers swipe through a carousel post.
Posters printed across multiple pages
Split a large image into standard page sized pieces that can each be printed separately and assembled into one big poster.
Sprite sheets and game tilesets
Cut a single sprite sheet image into its individual tiles or frames for use in a game engine or animation tool.

Grid for feed puzzles and posters, splits both width and height.
Columns for carousels and panoramas, vertical slices only.
Rows for stacked strips and comic style panels, horizontal slices only.
Splitting an image sounds simple, cut it into equal pieces, but getting a clean result depends on matching the split mode to what the pieces will actually be used for. A grid split divides both width and height, which is exactly right for an Instagram profile puzzle where the pieces sit in a square tile layout, but it is the wrong choice for a carousel post, where every slide should be the full height of the original photo. Columns mode solves that by only slicing along the width, producing tall slides rather than small squares.
The crop shape setting exists because most source photos are not perfectly square, and a grid split treats width and height independently. Splitting a 4000 by 3000 pixel photo into a 3 by 3 grid without cropping first produces pieces that are wider than they are tall, which looks stretched or mismatched once posted individually. Choosing the Square crop shape center-crops the photo to a 1 to 1 ratio before any slicing happens, so every one of the nine resulting pieces is genuinely square.
A 3 by 3 Instagram grid puzzle only works if the pieces are posted in the correct order, since a profile feed fills from the bottom right and reads backward. The pieces in this tool are numbered 1 to 9 reading left to right and top to bottom, which matches how you would read the original photo, but posting to Instagram requires reversing that order, piece 9 first, then working down to piece 1 last. The number badge on each downloaded piece and each preview tile is there specifically so this order is easy to track no matter how many pieces are involved.
For a carousel post, order matters just as much but works the opposite way. Carousel slides post in the same left to right order the pieces are numbered here, so piece 1 becomes the first slide a follower sees when they open the post, and piece 5 (or whatever the last piece is) becomes the final slide at the end of the swipe.
More pieces means a more detailed effect but also a bigger commitment, a 4 by 4 Instagram grid puzzle takes over sixteen posts on a profile rather than nine, and a ten slide carousel asks more of a follower's attention than a five slide one. For posters, the right piece count usually comes down to your printer's maximum page size and how large you want the final assembled print to be, more pieces means a bigger poster built from more individually printed pages.
Use grid mode with the 3 by 3 preset and crop to square first. This produces 9 pieces which, when uploaded to your Instagram profile in the correct order, one after another starting from the bottom right piece, reassemble into the original photo across your feed. The pieces here are numbered 1 to 9 reading left to right and top to bottom, so post the highest numbered piece first and work backward.
Use columns mode. This splits a single wide image into equal vertical slices, which is exactly what a carousel needs since Instagram displays each slide as its own square or portrait card. Upload the pieces to your carousel in the same order they are numbered here and they will read correctly as you swipe.
A grid split divides both width and height into equal parts. If the source photo is not square, splitting it into a 3 by 3 grid produces rectangular pieces rather than square ones, which looks wrong on a square-tile feed. Choosing the Square crop shape first center-crops the photo to a square before slicing, guaranteeing every piece comes out square as well.
Yes. Every piece in the results grid has its own small download button in the corner. Use the Download all as ZIP button instead if you want every piece bundled into a single file to extract later.
Rows and columns are each capped at 10, for a maximum of 100 pieces in grid mode. This is a practical limit rather than a technical one, splitting into more pieces than that rarely produces a usable result and takes meaningfully longer to generate in the browser.
Yes, when viewed together at their original scale. Each piece is cut at an exact pixel boundary with no gap or overlap between them, so placing the pieces back in their grid positions, whether physically printed or displayed edge to edge digitally, reproduces the original image with no visible seam.
Yes. Grid mode splits a large image into a set of standard-sized pieces that can each be printed separately and taped or glued together into one large poster. Choose the number of rows and columns based on how many printed pages you want the final poster to span.
No. Splitting happens entirely with the Canvas API in your browser, including generating the ZIP file. Nothing is sent to any server at any point. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool still works.
