I have tried everything I know in Photoscape and tried the online help files but cannot figure out how to perform this internal crop. I've seen this done using Adobe Photoshop but I don't want to buy or learn that program Does anyone have a tip for Photoscape? I haven't tried but I guess if the reverse was shot in the reflector, the edge lettering would be in the correct orientation? Makes my head hurt thinking about it.
