Zoom tool - helps you zoom in or out to clearly see specific parts of the
image that you want to work with. This does not affect the actual
size of the image. |

Crop tool - helps you select and save only the portion of the
image you want to use. Also found on the Image menu
bar. This will change the physical dimensions of your image. |

Note: you need to go to the Image menu and
select Resize
if you want to change the physical dimensions (length and width) of the
image. |

you use this tool |
