Post subject: Scrapbook Cutting - A Beginner's Guide to Cutting your Photographs
Archived from groups: alt>crafts>scrapbooks (more info?)

Unless you intend to simply stick your photographs two or three to the
page simply to keep them protected from acid and the environment,
you're going to have to learn how to cut your photographs to create
interesting layouts. The first few times your snip into a picture with
a pair of scissors you might be nervous or feel like you're committing
an awful crime, but as you practice you will become more confident in
your cropping skills.
Cropping is simply the term used for cutting away parts of a
photograph. Even expert photographers many times find that their
pictures will look better when cropped, and this can be done by hand
with a cutting tool on the computer before you make your prints.
Either way, when you are actually creating a page, you probably will
not want pictures that are all the same size and shape. Instead, your
layout might include circles and squares, as well as a number of other
non-traditional photograph shapes. If you are nervous about cutting
your pictures for the first time, get double prints made. This way,
you have a back up in case you make a mistake....
