I don't know which forum this would be most notisced in.... sorry if I misposted this. I have a shot I like for the candid challenge, but it needs cropping. The cropping I want to do is not in the normal 640x480 or other allowable ratios... it's something funky. Is this allowed or does this have to be in that format and ratio?

Currently you must use the 640x480/640x427 or vice versa ratios...

Rob, what size did you shoot the photo in? Why can't you change the size? Or is it a matter of what works better for the shot?

Mark - I was there once - resize it without changing the photo - look at your editor and concentrate your study on changing the dimesions of the photo through the editor without attempting to do so by cropping - that is just a perimeter/boundary tool. Again, resize without changing the photo. I did what u did with a tombstone for about 2 hrs and cropped it too much - don't change ur shot! Good luck,

Thanks for your help, people... I actually (along with my very patient wife) counted the pixels off of what I needed to get to the right ratio.... I think I did okay - I did the cropping first and fell in love with the cropping before I realized that it was a weird ratio (although I suspected it all along).

Thanks again!

Mark
