How do you make images rounded instead of squared by default.

It is very easy. Depending on the software you use to create your logo, you can add a mask or a frame on the design.

If you use Photoshop, just draw a circle by using the Elliptical Marquee tool while pressing SHIFT at the same time. Make sure that the final look of the logo you want is in the circle. Then, press CTRL + J to create a new layer. Unselect the original layer of your logo before you export it.

If you use Canva, consider exporting your logo first. Then, upload your logo, add a frame, and put your design into it. Certainly, before you do this, make sure that the aspect ratio of your logo is about 1:1 so that it can be perfectly centered.

After you get the desired image, export it as a PNG file or an SVG file.
