Do not crop, always down-sample. Plus, by cropping an image, you are cutting off the corners, while down-sampling lets you show the whole thing, except with increased sharpness.

As you can appreciate I would like to send them the highest quality possible.Regards and Thanks for a great resource.Michael I am a photographer and not a Photoshop expert but would greatly appreciate your view on the following scenario, best described with an example, here goes!

The processed 8 bit Tiff from a D3x as you know is about 72meg.

a) Using the crop tool in CS5, I crop out an area of this image corresponding to 50meg, no interpolation is performed, just a simple crop.

b) Using CS5 Image size menu, I downsample the initial 72meg image to 50meg with Bi-Cubic Sharper or Normal option.

Which image, a) or b) will have the highest resolution?

I ask because my NEF images processed in Nikon Capture NX2 as 8 bit Tiffs are about 72 meg and I am being asked by a photographic library to send them 50 meg images. As you can appreciate I would like to send them the highest quality possible.

Regards and Thanks for a great resource.

I've always wanted to know how to add frames manually. I've gotten so used to actions, that I didn't realize how simple it was to do it myself :)THANK YOU! What a great post.

With "Relative" selected (the check-box on the "Canvas size" window) one can directly enter the thickness of the frame in pixels. Thus, no need to calculate (to add to the picture size).Regards, Just want to add what I discovered recently.
