 | Charlie Chalk Self praise is no recommendation. Member since Oct 2011 45195 Points Moderator | I use paint.net (version 4.0.2), and find it much easier to use a mouse than the keypad. Make sure you chose the 'Ellipse Select' tool. I always crop my label scans to squares in Microsoft Office Picture Manager, before tidying them up in paint.net, ensuring that the four edges of the square are just about touching the edges of the labels.Once in paint.net, I then drag the Ellipse Select tool from the very top left of the square. Let us know if you're still having difficulties. |
