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.
