[Nmcaver] Cropping Photos

[Minton, Mark]

            One thing to be aware of when making circular (and probably other non-rectangular) crops is that if you want to save the cropped image as is you must choose a format which supports transparent background; otherwise you end up with a round image in a white square.  JPEG, for instance, does not support this and you end up with an image that looks the same as if you'd done a rectangular crop from a white background.  GIF is one format that does support transparent background.  Then you can paste the round image onto something else and not see any white corners.
