Mini Tutorial (Beginner) basic cropping

[spikesbint]

I have put together a mini-tutorial on basic cropping. This is mainly for illustration purposes for a forum I mod on and to hopefully help a friend :)Cropping Tutorial for Photoshop CS2. It should be easily transferable for earlier versions. After all we didnt all start out as Photoshop experts lol (not that I am one either!)

This seems so simple, but many people can't seem to explain the real, *basic* way to crop an icon well enough that I could understand it. But yay for this tut! Adding to mems.

Well, thank you very, very much. That was so easy to follow. I now have my first PS cropped "icon." I'm very excited because that was a lot of fun.

So THAT'S how it works! I was wondering why the cop tool was so weird and why everything distored when made smaller. thank you ♥
