Cover photo cropping

[RocketOG]

Rather than having to find a profile cover that fits the specific requirements which is very difficult users should be able to upload any size image and be able to reposition it to fit inside the box, anything that dosent fit in it is automatically cropped out.

Spoiler: Example

What you're suggesting, how exactly is it different from the repositioning option that's already available?

Based on the information he gave us, I would have agreed that I originally thought that he would have liked to be able to change the resolution, but the screenshots provided say otherwise.

Personally, I've just been cropping it myself to whatever size I want via any basic photo editor before uploading it.
Adding cropping to the addon would require custom development which would probably do better in other areas instead.
Perhaps the author of the cover addon could be contacted and convinced that cropping should be added. Otherwise, I'm feeling it's not worth the trouble.

Correct, you have to find something that fits the requirements which is almost impossible even through a google search unless you want a very basic color. With this you would be able to upload no matter the size and then readjust it so that the portion of the image you want to see fits in the box.

Like I said, just use any photo editor, and resize your pictures to whatever you want.
There's no reason why it needs to be your exact size right off of google images.

Please work out your own cover pictures, we don't need to edit an addon that we didn't even make for such a minor thing.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
