    Hello everyone,

    I recorded a little video showing how to crop an image quickly without firing up Photoshop.

    Caution: This is a beginner tutorial haters :")

    I hope you enjoy it.

    Pretty cool way to do this, especially when it is impossible to use your programs because I am using someone's laptop.

    I think using paint is faster, easier, and it comes with Windows :D

    Thank you for sharing this information. :) this might come in handy when using a different laptop without any image editing software.

    For the ultimate quick crop set your mouse speed to maximum, it may not be as accurate though .

    You can crop an image online also. There are a ton of freeware photo editing apps that do this more quickly. I like FastStone Viewer. You can google it if you want. Others will have their own favorite.

    It's pretty cool but single use tools are often too simplistic. I wanted to test out it's auto select feature and it did pretty well but where both windows and mac can detect the orientation of a photo and let you preview the right way up this tool didn't - which means the user then has to find a way to save the rotated version and re-upload, risking that they won't return.

    I usually use Paint.NET for anything simple, when I dont feel like opening Photoshop.
