Probably, many faced such a problem when a photograph needs to cut out a specific fragment or reduce the resolution.
This can be done with the help of various graphic editors, which will be discussed later. How to reduce a photo without making it blurry? We will find out this and much more! Show a little patience and perseverance. Remember that it is not necessary to be a professional photographer in order to make real masterpieces out of pictures. Enough to give vent to imagination.
How to reduce photos using standard image editors? The first and most important rule in working with photos - do not try to learn all the functions of special programs at once! This does not mean that you should not try new things and experiment, but you need to do this gradually, step by step. First of all, we’ll figure out how to reduce photos using Paint, PaintNet, and other standard Windows programs. To do this, you need to decide how to reduce the photo: in whole or in part. For example, there is a group shot, but you need to leave only one specific person, or you accidentally photographed foreign objects.
To correct the photo you need to use the "Select" function. Having selected the dotted line that appears, press the keys Ctrl + C to copy, + X - to cut out the fragment, + V - to paste the previously copied fragment by default. A simpler way: with the left mouse button, simply drag the selected photo fragment to the upper left corner. Then reduce it by moving the borders to the desired size.
How to reduce photos in size without losing quality
In the second way, you can reduce the resolution of the photo without losing its quality. To do this, we’ll use the “Resize” editor function, which can be called up by pressing Ctrl + W or by clicking on the special icon located in the upper left corner of the editor just to the right of the “Select” function. In the window that appears, you can edit not only the size and scale (in pixels or percent), but also change the angle, angle, and so on.
Another photo editing program is Photoshop CS, with which you can change your photos in a similar way, but better. Photoshop is a program designed specifically for professional designers. With its help, you can not only process the photo beyond recognition, making, for example, a “pitching” from a thin guy, but also “draw” the image from scratch.
The secret of Photoshop is that in working with photos, filters and layers are used to lay out the image and with the help of which its structure itself is changed.
Using it, you can change the size in the same way as we explained earlier, or using the “Image Editing” menu, where you can find all the necessary tools. Additionally, Photoshop provides the functions of an animation editor, with which you can, using various effects, overlay one photo on another and create a real 3D photo. Show a little imagination and don't be afraid to try new things.
