What you're talking about isn't cropping, just make a selection with any of the selection tools then copy and paste it into a new image. (Ctrl+N for a new image)

Used the magic wand tool to select the white, then hit delete. Note the settings on the option bar. Also hold the alt key and double click the background layer first to convert it to a normal layer.
