To crop an image you need to open the image in editing page. Once the image is open, click on crop tab on the page. Now click on the image and select the portion, which you want to keep. Save the image and there you go. You get the part of the image, which you want to keep.

Red Eye Removal
: - Many a times when you take a snap, the flash is reflected off the back of a person's eyes. That's "red eye" and a red eye remover comes along with most of the photo editor software. It removes the red colors and converts to different tones of black and white known as grayscale. The red color changes to grayscale without changing the actual pixel.


Magnify and highlight: - You can take a snap sometimes and if you like to draw attention to something specific in that snap, you can use this tool to highlight that and magnify it, and/or blur the unwanted part in the image. It works like a magnifying glass.



With a right kind of photo editor you can do magic to your photographs.
