Crop Photos
Use this page to crop your photo and all permutations generated of the photo throughout your account.

Album Manager > Photo Controls > Crop Photos
To crop your photos go to the Album Manager > Photo Controls > Crop Photos page:

Once you're on the Crop Photos page you will be able to select the photo you want to crop from the album photo thumbnails displayed at the bottom of the page:

After you've selected the photo you want to crop it will show up in the crop interface at the top of the page:

Move your mouse over one of the corner handles on the photo then click and drag the handle to define the crop area. The area inside the handles will be kept and the areas on the outside of the crop handles will be removed when you click the Apply button. The size of the original and the size of the cropped version is displayed in real-time on the right side of the photo:

Click and drag in the center of the crop area to move it around on the photo. You can only do this once the crop area is smaller than the original photo (in other words, reduce the size of the crop by moving the handles then you can drag to move the crop area around).

Click the Apply button when you are ready to have the Crop applied to the photo:

After you click the Apply button you will see a small dialog appear onscreen telling you that it may take a little while before the crop takes place and the photo is processed:

Click the OK button to close this dialog.

After the photo is cropped you can click on the small album thumbnail image to load it back up into the crop tool to view the changes:

Once the photo is cropped the new size will be updated in your album, slideshows, presentations and all smaller versions of the photo will be updated for thumbnails, etc ...

You cannot undo the crop action once it has been applied so make sure you want to take this action before you click the apply button.
