Call me remedial, but I can't figure out for the life of me how to get rid of the grey border around the actual picture. Every time I crop the image, it goes microscopic and reads 1px in width. This happens regardless of what area, or how much I crop.


If anyone cares to take a stab at it, the action can be downloaded here ("http://mutato-nomine.deviantart.com/art/Hand-colored-Vintage-Photo-ATN-37412305?offset=0#comments). I am using the "Aging" and "Color" actions.


Image is from homecoming this past weekend (I go to a private school w/o a football team so we have ours 3 weeks after everyone else). I took the girl in the middle. We decided on balloons instead of flowers. Cause after all, three balloons is only like $4.00 :) Oh yeah, she got her dress from goodwill for about $11.00 haha. I got a matching tie for $7.00. Total budget, $22.00. Her idea I swear!


Thanks,


Rodger

I really am remedial... Wow. I don't even want to post the problem. haha. ahh. It appears that the crop dimensions were previously set to 1px width. I hit "clear" and now it crops perfectly. wow. I'm sorry for your spent time..
