tony i see how you have prob with cropping (aka its a huge pic with a lot of white space)
this should help (i asume your using paint cuase good editors remove that junk)
1 crop image
2 selct whats left and move it to the top of the page
3 image->atributes
4 shorten the height/width
and that cuts of the bottom blank spots, but its a trial and error so dont cut off to much. do small amounts a few times to get rid of it all
o and i like it
