As I do a lot of image editing for my blogs, websites and social media stuff, I need more advanced image editors. I am generally using Adobe Photoshop to do it but when I find myself carrying another laptop which does not have Adobe Photoshop my next go to software is Paint.Net.
Paint.Net is a freeware, it's not as heavy as Adobe Photoshop but it has some basic tools which Microsoft Paint does not have.
Cropping is a term for cutting out images. In Microsoft Paint and Adobe there is a crop tool for doing this. For Paint.net there is no such tool but it's not that difficult also.
Steps to do
- Select the rectangle selection tool
- Select the part of image to crop
- At the menu, select Image->Crop to Selection
Alternatively instead of going to the menu, can use the shortcut key to crop (CTRL+SHIFT +X )
