Hey guys, so basically this is my html code

HTML

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
	<head>
		<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet.css"/>
		<title>My Social Network</title>
	</head>
	<body>
	    <div class="friend"></div>
	    <div class="friend" id="best_friend"></div>
	    <div class="family"></div>
	    <div class="enemy"></div>
	    <div class="enemy" id="archnemesis"></div>
	</body>
</html>

and this is my CSS code

CSS

div {
	display: inline-block;
	margin-left: 5px;
	height:100px;
	width:100px;
	border-radius:100%;
	border:2px solid black;
}

.friend{
    border: 2px dashed #008000;
}

.family{
    border: 2px dashed #0000ff;
}

.enemy{
    border: 2px dashed #ff0000;
}

#best_friend{
    border:4px solid #00C957;
}

#archnemesis{
    border:4px solid #CC0000;
}

The result of the code are 5 circles with different borders around them each.

My question is how would I go about putting images into the circles, with the images being cropped to the dimensions of the already created circles/borders?

Treat the image as background of the div and set the various background properties in CSS like this example:

CSS

div {
    */ your existing rules */
	background-image: url("http://codeproject.cachefly.net/App_Themes/CodeProject/Img/logo250x135.gif");
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	background-position:50% 50%;
	background-size: contain;
}
