How to crop easier.

[Rhodesy]

Hello, this is my seventh guide I've created.
Ever spent ages getting a precise crop on a certain
image using the crop tool? Then this will come in handy!
​

First find an image. I'm going to use this picture of the google logo.
Print screen the google page.

Open paint. All programs>accessories>paint.
click, edit and Paste your picture, or control+F4.

on the left hand side, click the select tool.

Instead of using the crop tool, you can just put a box around the desired area, and click copy.

open a new paint document, and paste the image, and done, easier and faster way to crop.

Hope I helped, thanks for reading.

Nice use of colours and pictures + it was short and sweet. Paint is a great program for 2-minute editing jobs. Also, just a heads up that the tool next to the box tool (it looks like a star) will let you select areas of whatever shape you desire.

There is already a guide for this.

However, I feel your one was written better and easier to grasp. I used to use Paint for basic cropping, but the quality is horrible for me, and I've gotten tired of it.
I'll write a guide similar to this, only using GIMP instead. I think I'll try my hand at User Education.
