    Quick Photoshop Help

    PS Elements will only let me crop in ratio to the original image. For example, if the original image is a square, I can only crop in squares, I can't make a long, skinny rectangle. This is really frustrating me, and the help menus aren't helping at all. How can I change this?!?!?!?!

          Yeah... if you really mean crop and not resize... there is nothing hard about it at all and I pity you. If you mean resize, just turn off constrain proportions, but that distorts it. If you don't want that, you can use the resize canvas, but crop tool is tons easier, unless you want some certain #..

            I can crop... normally. It is screwed up, now. I admit, my explanation sucked, but a picture, albeit a hastily thrown together, bad one, is worth a thousand words, so I hope this and the following explain it.

                Looks like you have a problem with your software. That is not normal, and NOT an accurate indication of Photoshop, or what it can do.... did you pay for your copy?

                    FIXED IT!!!!!!!

                    It came bundled with the computer (Sony Vaio desktop). It's fine for what I need, which is just editing photos. It turns out, that the height and with were locked for the crop. All I needed to do was hit clear on the crop taskbar (whatever you call it under the photoshop toolbar at the top), and it works fine.
