Now I will save it. To save the cropped image I need to use the Save or Save As option. But I will not use the only Save option because it will replace my main image and only just saved it as a cropped image. So I will use Save As option. This option will only save the cropped image and my main image will be fine. So I will save this image as a JPEG picture because a JPEG file is a small size file.
