Crop vs Resize
Cropping cuts away parts of the frame — like trimming a photo. Resizing changes the entire frame dimensions. Crop when you want to remove unwanted edges, focus on a specific area, or change aspect ratio without stretching. Resize when you want to keep everything but change the pixel count.
