Short explanation of showing the two different ways you can crop parts off of an image.
I'll use the same image in the tute I did of the cropping off of a frame.

Method One:
Crop A Frame

Kitten picture:




This is Method Two of using CHOP AND CROP as in my tute:

Chop & Crop Tute

Now point to the right bottom inside the frame and you should get the numbers 233,252.

Now what you would do to crop it off is go to Transform and use +233+252 and click on
CHOP (check the reset geometry button) Now the frame is cropped off of the bottom and right side.

Now go to the top left and inside the frame you should get 28,28. Now you would put in +28+28 and CROP. The left side and top of frame is now cropped off.

So you see, you can do it either way but since the frame was the exact size all around the picture I used the way of using the size of the frame (28x28) to do my cropping like in the tute above. (Transform +28 -28 and then -28 +28 using just Crop) Hope this helps in understanding how to crop images. The Chop & Crop method is good when you have parts that are not the same pixels to take off as the frame in this example. ~Lee~
