   Rotate

   1. Put your cursor on the lower right corner of the box around your picture until it turns into a double arrow.
   2. Click/Hold/and pull down which will make your box bigger, giving grayspace around the image.

Resizing

1. In Photoshop go to Image/Image Size
2. Be sure that the 'Constrain Proportions' box is checked.
3. Adjust either the pixel dimensions (if you know what you want) or the Document Size.
   1. I recommend that if you want the image to go out via email or on the Web, then don't go over 5" for the width or height
4. Set your resolution for 72 pixels per inch
5. Try sharpening the image by going to Filter/Sharpen/Sharpen
   1. If it doesn't look better doing this, go to Edit/Undo Sharpen
