cropping pictures that have been scanned?

Q: I have a group picture but I want to save just the part showing my face (for a dating site), how do I cut it and paste it to a jpg document.?

A: Use Microsoft Paint. Start Menu > Programs > Accessories > Paint File > Open, then select your image. Using the selection tool (marquee) top right in the toolbox (looks like a dotted square), draw a rectangle around the part of the image you would like to crop. After you have made your selection. Edit > Copy To You will be prompted where you would like to save the new image. Choose a new file name and make sure that the "Save as type" drop down box is set to JPEG. Click on the save button and that will save a new image containing only the selected area. I hope that this answers your question. Please rate my answer if you found it useful.
