We haven't had to crop photos either but sometimes we need to adjust the brightness/contrast a little. Photoshop can be free if you know the right people...

Adobe Photoshop

Mr. Google wouln't pirate photoshop for you but he'll find a dark grey market copy for about $100 if you ask real nice.

After an incident two weeks ago that was less than favorable, I'll use any means reasonable to shorten my stays in places that I don't feel safe. If it's Photoshop or the baseball bat, I'll take Photoshop. It just happens to be a tool that is convenient for me to use and easily accessible.

Glad to hear others have been doing it, too. JASC Paint is another program that would work well in cropping, also. I've rarely used it but it can be done.

Photoshop is unnecessary actually. Microsoft photo editor works just as well for cropping and doing simple touch-up work and is a helluva lot cheaper too. I think it comes with MS office.

No doubt photoshop is an overkill for BPO photo's... it really shines when it comes to making flyers, brochures,websites, postcards, business cards, newspaper ads, newsletters, labels and the like for the rest of your business.

If you have photoshop for other uses, its great for BPO's but I doubt I'd buy it just for the BPO work.
