## Descripcion

By default, WordPress uses the center of an image when creating cropped thumbnails.
SmartCrop attempts to find and use the most interesting part of an image and centers
the cropping on that portion of the image.

This process is entirely automatic and cannot be manually controlled. There are 
other plugins out there if you wish to manually specify where you want thumbnails
to be cropped.

Since this analysis process can be slow on large images, thumbnails are initially
center cropped and later asynchronously regenerated to be smartly cropped. This 
avoids the uploading of new images from being slow. The one side effect of this 
however is that your browser may load and cache the centered thumbnail before it’s
re-cropped.

Want to smartly crop your past image uploads? You can use my [Regenerate Thumbnails](https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/)
plugin to trigger that. Make sure to uncheck skipping existing thumbnails.
