RatchetDaxter,

I use 2 programs to crop images, in this order:

1. MS Paint: I use  the polygon tool to color backgrounds white, leaving the desired image able to have a background filled in any color necessary. Make sure that the picture is saved as a .PNG file, so the background can still be colored in.

2. GIMP 2. GIMP 2 can be downloaded off the internet. After the MS paint process, you open the image in GIMP. Then you select the white background pieces with the "Fuzzy Select" tool, and make them transparent by right-clicking the image and selecting "Layer" and then "Transparency" and then "Color To Alpha". This will make it so the image will have absolutely no background, so Crash, for example, will be the only thing seen. Then, save the image as a .PNG again.

Now, the Cortex and CNK Crash photos won't be a problem to crop, but unfortunately the Crash spinning image cannot be cropped. This is due to both the size of the images, and the fact that the small spinning effects and the transparency of some parts of the image will not be able to be present when it is cropped.
