Once Upon A Dream Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I'm new, haven't posted before but have a question about free transform. If I start with the full length shot and then use free transform to get the up close image, how do I know if it will print ok? I tried the multiplying the h x w in pixels, but the pixels didn't change when i used the regular marquee on them after i free transformed. Is it ok to use free transform to "zoom" in on a pic instead of cropping it with the crop tool? I put one example and then the free transformed example.

Damien Symonds Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 NEVER use the Free Transform method. It's a very dangerous myth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Once Upon A Dream Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 so, i can't use free transform at all in editing images? Does it destroy the images? Thank you for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Yes, it's incredibly destructive. Never use it. Only use the Crop Tool, and NEVER during editing. http://www.damiensymonds.net/2011/09/cropping-tutorial.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
