When editing a photo in PicMonkey, you have three types of editing options: Canvas, Basic, and Advanced. This help article will look at the Canvas Edits menu, which allows you to Crop, Resize, and Rotate your image.


Crop

Crop lets you change the composition of your photo in 1 of 3 ways:

  • Choose a preset size from the drop-down proportions menu.

  • Enter the exact width and height you desire.

  • Use the corner handles to drag the bounding box to your desired size.


Resize

  • To change the size of your image, enter the new pixel dimensions into the text boxes.

  • The box on the left controls width and the box on the right controls height.

  • Check Keep proportions to keep the aspect ratio of your canvas the same.
