| 599117 | 2007-10-07 23:20:00 | I've just upgraded from Win98 to WinXP and Office 97 to Office 2003 and am loving it, especially the Microsoft Office Picture Manager. There is just one more thing that I'm needing. Does anyone know of a free picture software that allows me to cut out images (people)? | Raewyn (946) | ||
| 599118 | 2007-10-07 23:36:00 | You could try Photo Story (www.microsoft.com) You have to validate before you download it. Or Ifranview (http://www.irfanview.com) Or Picasa (http://picasa.google.com/) Dont know if Picasa cuts/crops tho. Its a bit tricky cutting out 1 person tho, if this is all you want to do. Most programs, let you cut / crop out a background as well. |

Of course Picture Manager allows cropping of images using the Crop tool, but is limited to squares/rectangles. |

| 599121 | 2007-10-07 23:57:00 | I'm wanting to trace around a person and cut them out and put them on a white background if that makes sense? Yeah, I'm a bit slow when it comes to upgrading stuff. I only bought my very first DVD player 2 months ago - lol! | Raewyn (946) | ||
| 599122 | 2007-10-07 23:58:00 | Oh okays, maybe I can buy something on Trade Me. Any suggestions? :-) | Raewyn (946) | ||
| 599123 | 2007-10-08 00:06:00 | Might be better if u had a scanner, and cut the pic out then scan it. Then insert / add the pic in whatever program. |

I only bought my very first DVD player 2 months ago - lol! It makes a lot of sense Raewyn, your talking about standard stuff that you can do in Photoshop or any decent image editing program. You could try getting Photoshop WOW (possibly from the library) or Photoshop Studio by Bert Monroy Both of which are excellent books, the latter one is better, for learning how to from scratch in Photoshop otherwise just keep looking around to see what free stuff there is. You can actually download a trial version of Photoshop CS3 from Adobe - 30 day trial period |
