Photshop gurus.. question..
 

normally I use microsoft picture it for cropping images, but the things so damn buggy & keeps freezing up on me,, so, I am trying to crop with photoshop.. however, the problem I have is I can only crop square or rectangular shapes...
I am trying to crop an image & I want the cropped image to be a circle.. how can I do that.. can anyone help me..

thank you...

I'm on icq 112771690 , or just post here

cant do it unless you use spacedogphotoshop

what other programs can crop into a circular shape?

actually do this.

click down on the square marquee tool and you will see the oval selection

then in the marquee options select style: fixed size
enter your pixels size ie:125 x 125 or 100 x 100 make them the same

and just click on the image

a perfect circle

On your tools, select the upper left icon.
Hold it down until the menu comes up and select the "elliptical Marquee tool"

That is not a cropping tool.. but it should do the trick.

so, basically, instead of cropping the image, I cut out a circle shape & then paste it onto a new canvas.. right?


cool... thanks guys..

right
