Step 1) First thing you need to do is pick an image. Any image will work with this technique. I’ll be using one of my MySpace pictures.

Step 2) Press U on your keyboard to select the shape tool. At the top of the workspace, in the options space, you’ll see the Rounded Square/Rectangle Tool. Click on that.

Step 3) Click anywhere on your image, hold down, and drag to make the rectangle bigger. If you want a perfect square, press Shift while holding down the mouse. You should then see the shape of your rectangle.
