Changing the shape of an
image
Changing the shape of an
image so that it can fit into
a particular place, fit the
style of the page, or to
focus on a point of the
image.
1. Open Photoshop, and open the
the image you want to edit in
Photoshop
2. Right-click on the image, and
duplicate the image. Then, right-
click on the original image, and
delete it. This is because you
cannot change the shape of a
background image.
3. Then, select the marquee tool, the
dashed box, and then select the
elliptical marquee tool
4. Once you’ve selected the the tool, you
can select what piece of the image you
want to keep, and what shape you want it
to be.
5. Next, once your image has been
selected, go to the top menu, click on
Select, and then on Inverse. This will now
select everything except what you
originally selected.
6. Finally, press the delete button, and you
will be left with just your original photo
selection.
