Can anyone help?. I use a small Olympus camera for my photos, nothing special but quite adequate for my needs.I find the present format for photos on Ebay excellent.There is one problem I do have and that is with the cropping option. When I try to crop the photo all I get is a series of little squares which I can move around, but I want the full square of the item so that I can crop both the sides.

Is there is something that I am not doing.? Anyone with the same problem? I would love to know if there is a solution.

Many thanks in advance. Patricia.

If you're using a PC, try Paint.

I also find Lunapic quite handy (it's free)

A simple yet powerful editor is PhotoScape.

It has all the features you are likely to need and will even do simple image compositing.

It's a free program and quite few ebayers here have or are using it as do I.

I would normally use Photoshop and Lightroom for serious work but for editing images for eBay this tool is excellent.

That interesting Patricia. I just get the one small square, or highlighted box, with tabs in each corner to click and hold and drape across the whole image to the extremities I need. It works really well.

Not much help, but I guess it shows that it's working for at least one other.
