[QUOTE="Groovetube, post: 1790770, member: 223633"] Just thought I'd add, in case it's helpful for the future, a really super fast easy way (and what Ive used in photoshop/illustrator) shortcut to use the selection tool in preview you drag and force it to a perfect square size... When you drag the selection over an image to crop, simply press shift while dragging and it'll automatically constrain the selection to a square selection no matter what size you drag it to. This is useful if you need to make the image an even square size, and you'd rather drag the selection to crop what you want visually because after selecting you can drag that square selection (place mouse in the middle of the selection it'll turn to a "dragging hand") around the image instead of doing it blind in a dialog box. :) [/QUOTE]
