Cropping a photo

To crop a photo:

  1. Roll over the image and click the View button to view it larger.
  2. Click Edit Photo, just above the photo, to use the Picnik site tools.
  3. When the photo loads, click the Crop button under the Edit tab.
  4. Use your mouse to drag the corners or sides of the box to the desired crop.  To rotate the crop zone from horizontal to vertical, for example, adjust the corners of the box in or up and the crop zone will automatically switch to vertical.

Tips:

  1. The crop zone should match the print size you are ordering, so that more or less of the photo is cropped than desired.  Use the dropdown menu to choose your print size and this will set the crop guides to match so that the photo will fill the paper and you won’t have white bars at the top or bottom.
  2. Save a new copy! You may like to go back to your original at some point, so to be safe, save a new copy once you crop, or make other edits.
