Photoshop Elements :: How To Copy Rectangle Photo Into Square Picture Frame
Apr 21, 2013
On my website, especially when pictures are side by side, I try to make all the same, i.e. square. To me it looks better. I have a picture that is rectangle and obviously cannot resize to a square - distorts the picture. I know there is a way to copy the rectangle picture into a square picture frame which allows the picture to be square while not distorting the rectangle size.
But I don't know how to do this. I have watched a video on this but still not clear how to do it.
I would like to have all the photos on my site to be same size and square. However, a number of my original photos are rectangle. Is there a way to change the rectangle photos to square photos?
I am trying to add a frame to some pictures, but when trying to apply a frame from the content section, the frame goes on top of any picture...and not directly on to the picture.
I am trying to use corel draw x5 to create a template for a photo frame. I want my inside rectangle to be used as a stopping point for my images so the engraver doesn't engrave in the blank area in the middle of a frame.
Is there a way to add a "photo frame" to a picture? Like, is there a library or set of frames that can be used on the edges of pictures in a simple click or two?
I am wanting "pretty" frames for adding photos to printed coffee mugs etc.
I need to copy my edited photos to a flash drive to play on our photo frame. I don't want to move them, just copy them and they need to be JPGs for the frame. I would prefer to keep the files full size rather than dumb them down for e-mail. What are my options? I have thousands of photos in LR and now I'm concerned that LR won't do the job for me.
I have used photoshop Elements for years for scrapbooking, but as just starting to use premier Elements. my first project will be using a lot of very old family portraits and put on a DVD. can I put a frame around a photo in premier elements and can i use background papers like I do in elements. I am using version 11 for both.
I am very new to Photoshop and I have a photo that has been in a frame therefore the middle of the picture has discolored leaving a circle which is a different colour. I am using Elements 9.
Our computer is used by several people and somehow the rectangle marquee tool lost its square corners and now only shows rounded corners.How to change the marquee tool back to the square corners?
Ive right clicked on the said pics and normally with elements9 it would give me a number of places to which i could sent the chosen frame. But after purchasing elements 11 I am not getting the option to send them anywhere.
I'm trying to crop a rectangle that is slightly off square, so the cropping rectangle is either clipping part of the image or not enough of the empty space. Is there a way to clip a non-rectangular area?
The images are actually parts of a map as a specific projection, and need to be clipped non-rectangular so they match up.
I’m trying to figure out if there is a way to scale a “border” around a rectangle or square? Or, put another way, keeping an image the same size, but enlarge an inner rectangle or square without cropping the “border.” To try and add context, imagine a bezel used for an arcade machine. A border with a cut-out in the middle to view the screen. Imagine you wanted to preserve the information on the bezel border, but increase the size of the cut out.
When I try to copy a photo or a portion of a photo for pasting in to a layer, I get this message: "Could not complete the copy command because no pixels are selected." Now what?
I have an album in "album order". I would like to copy a photo from another album and place it directly in the correct location in the subject album without having to having it appear at the end of the album and then drag it to the new location. Is this possible?
The pickbox keeps turning into a rectangle and not a perfect square. It's width is less than its height. This keeps happening and is annoying. When I close AutoCAD 2012 and then reopen the drawing its a square, but soon turns into a rectangle.
With Gimp you can round the corners of a square or rectangle using two functions: the problem is that doing so all four corners will be rounded, while I am interested in only the two upper corners. Here's an example of what I would do.
How can I resize a photo in Elements 12, using the squares around the picture? I want to change the shape of the photo - in my old version, when I changed the size/shape, it would cut off part of the picture (which is what I want in order to get the size I want), whereas in Elements 12 it is just stretching and distorting the photo.
I am using this for a "scrapbook" photo page, where there are multiple photos and text on the page.
