How do I edit photos in less than 5 minutes with Picnik?

Photos intended for the top right media space of www.miis.edu webpages should be vertically-oriented: the height should be greater than the width. Photos cropped and resized to about 238×260 pixels fit the space best. You can crop photos online with Picnik in under 5 minutes by following the instructions below.

  1. In Flickr or Picasa, choose the photo you would like to edit with Picnik.
  2. Click “Crop.”
  3. Drag the grid over the portion of the photo you would like to keep, usually to reduce the width of the photo.
  4. Click “Resize” to adjust the height and width of the photo. Change the width to 238 pixels.
  5. Save your photo.

  6. Congratulations, you’ve just edited a photo in less than five minutes!
