Cropping Photos with Photo Album
You can crop photos in Photo Album by specifying the width-to-height ratio you want to maintain and then selecting the portion of the photo you want to keep. When you crop the photo, only the portion you selected remains.
You can also edit photos by rotating or flipping the image. For more information, see Rotating and Flipping Photos.
Photo Album keeps an original version of all your edited photos. You can restore the original photo at any time. For more information, see Restoring Edited Photos.
