Cropping Your Photos

Photo Express makes it simple and fun to crop or "trim" your photographs into all sorts of unique shapes! We'll show you how!
   

Step 1: Select Your Photo
When you open Photo Express, you'll be in the Browse Mode. Get photos from your digital camera, scanner, or video capture --- or select photos from any folder on your computer using the navigation on the left side of your screen. Visually browse your photos and double click to select one.
   

Step 2: Trim Your Photo
You are now in the Photo Mode, where you can edit your photos. To trim a photo, go to the Edit menu, select Adjust and then choose Trim.

   
Step 3: Customize Your Trim Shape
To resize your trim shape, click and pull any of the square nodes.
   
Control the sharpness of the edges of your trim shape with Soft Edge. The leftmost option will be the sharpest definition, while the rightmost option will be the blurriest.
Step 4: Save Your Photo
To save your original photo, be sure to check Create a New Image. Then click Apply. You now have an image trimmed in the shape of your choice!

Don't forget to share your photos with friends and family by emailing it, printing it or posting it on iMira.com, Ulead's free photo sharing service.
