In this tutorial I will show you how to use Amazing Photo Editor. You can do so many different things in this program. You can do everything from cropping a photo to apply effects to it. Amazing Photo Editor is one of my favorite photo editing programs to use. If you are new to photo programs this tutorial will get you started.

That's why I am writing this tutorial for the new users. So open your Amazing Photo Editor and we will get started.

You can open a photo to edit it by clicking File > Open > Open Image or by pressing CTRL O. A window will open and this is where you will need to locate the photo on your computer. Once you have located the photo, click it, and click the Open button. Your photo will open in the program window.

To crop a photo you will need to click the rectangle marquee icon at the top of your window. This is the icon that looks like a dotted square. Click the icon and draw a square or rectangle over the part of the photo that you want to keep. Then click Edit > Crop at the top of your window to crop it. You can also click the crop icon at the top of your window. The crop icon has two little green X on it. You can draw a square or rectangle over your photo and click the crop icon instead of clicking Edit > Crop.

You can add text to your photo too. At the top of your window you will see an icon that has a red T on it. Click that icon and click your mouse on your photo. A text window will open and this is where you will type your text and change your font options. Type your text in the bottom field. If you do not want a drop shadow on your text, click the X right above the drop shadow section. Change the font options to what you want. Then click the Apply button to apply the text and close the text window.

To save your photo go to the top of your window and click File > Save As. A window will open and you will need to type in a name for your photo in the bottom field.
