Ok, this was brought up to me by someone and I'm really confused.
Any picture that we take we put into PS and use the crop tool and put in 8x10 or 5x7 and so on and drag it across the picture and that's all the picture would print up as??? Is this how you find out what your picture will look like if you print them?
So if you send a close up picture in (lets say of a face only) to have an 8 x 10 made of it...how do they (the place that prints up the picture for you) crop it? Will they center the picture? Or it starts at the top (or bottom) and goes down/up?
So what do we do? Do we pull back some when taking a picture? Don't crop the picture? Add canvas to to the picture to make it bigger so the entire picture will fit in the cropped area? Save it differently so that it will fit?
I'm so confused. I was going to send off for a few pictures to have done to a place to see how their work is and to see if I wanted to use them to print pictures...but now I can't because if I use the pictures I have...it will cut faces, body parts and so on off.
Ok, so take the recent picture I did of my daughter Sakari. This is the original:
I followed the directions and cropped it for an 8x10. I now get this????
Then if I crop it at a 5x7, I will end up with this??
