How to Crop Pictures to Any Shape in PowerPoint   

You may have inserted pictures into PowerPoint a thousand times, but have you ever tried to crop the picture to any shape you want, right in PowerPoint?

Step 1: Insert the desired picture using the INSERT > PICTURE command.
Step 2: Select the picture, and from the Picture toolbar, click the DOWN ARROW under the CROP tool to reveal more options. Mouse over the CROP TO SHAPE menu and select a shape from the menu that appears.The shortcoming of this method is that you can only crop the picture to preset shapes that come with PowerPoint; but it is a lot easier than using image editing software like Photoshop to get a nice effect!  

*Note this command works in PowerPoint v2007 and above.
