random question. when you use the crop tool, what is the number I am missing from the box at the top?

When I crop this the picture disappears 🙃

Whoops, I forgot it!

If I need to re-size something for online to this size, how would I do it?

 

FILE SPECIFICATIONS We recommend resizing your jpeg image to 3000px on the longest side. This will make the upload process quicker. You can call your file whatever you like, as the system does not require specific names for upload.

Um ... I don't understand what you don't understand?

You're cropping to 4 pixels by 6 pixels.  That's TINY!

What site is it?

Re-sizing is something that confuses me!

I want to enter a few different photos in Asia Pacific Photography Awards & these are the only instructions they give you on the size.

How would I best do this?

Do you see it?

I think your asking "do I see whats wrong with above"

If so, yes.  It says 4 pixels x 6 pixels.

I'm wanting to know how to re-size something for the awards when they don't give you a specific size.  ie 3000 pixels on the longest side.

First, crop to your liking with NOTHING in the options bar.

Then open the Image Size window, make sure the "Resample" checkbox is checked, and the units are set to pixels, then literally replace the largest value with 3000.
