When you have an image that you want to use in a design, but it doesn’t quite fit, you can crop or “slice” the image to get rid of the parts you don’t want. Slicing an image in Photoshop is easy to do, and it gives you more control over your design. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open your image in Photoshop.

2. Select the “Crop Tool” from the toolbar.

3. Drag the Crop Tool around the part of the image that you want to keep.

4. When you’re happy with the selection, click “Enter” or “Return” on your keyboard.

5. The cropped image will now be its own layer in your document.

How Do I Slice an Image in Photoshop?

Photoshop is a great way to edit images and can be used for a variety of purposes, including cropping or “slicing” images. Slicing an image can be helpful when you want to use only certain parts of an image or when an image doesn’t fit perfectly into your design. Cropping or slicing an image is easy to do with just a few steps:

First, open the image in Photoshop that you want to crop or slice. Then, select the “Crop Tool” from the toolbar.

Once the Crop Tool is selected, drag it around the part of the image that you want to keep as your new selection. If you’re satisfied with the selection, click “Enter” or “Return” on your keyboard and the cropped image will now be its own layer in your document.

PRO TIP: Slicing an image in Photoshop can be a bit tricky, so be sure to follow the instructions carefully. Also, be aware that when you slice an image, you are essentially breaking it up into smaller pieces, so it is important to save a copy of the original image before you begin.
