Does anyone know how to create a thumbnail by croping a 130 x 130 image from the original? I got Photoshop, but I don't know how to crop to about that size. Any sugestions?

keep a copy of your work in psd form and make sure u dont wreck this copy of the largest size u have.

once u have cropped away the irrelevant edges

across the top in the image pull down is image size.

if saving for the internet to make a thumbnail then set the dpi to 72.

save out as a jpg at 30%

dont save over your original work at this point if closing the window in photoshop.

Thanx, but I found a way that's works fine and is somewhat simple. I'll update my site with them tonight.

theres heaps of free thumbnail programs around with batching possabilites. Some dont render down so well and all can be batched in shop as well using an action

no worries

Yeah, all the ones I tried didn't do what I wanted, if you look at my site you can see what I mean (shameless self-promtion)
