I'm trying to make six images for a website slideshow. They all need to be exactly 1000px by 400px.
All the images are above this size, so quality won't be diminished.

I don't really know where to start, and i'm confusing myself with terms like image size, canvas size and tools such as the marquee tool and the crop tool.

How do I go about this?

Good, Rule#1
"All the images are above this size, so quality won't be diminished."


Open image.
Goto: Image \ Image Size
Enable: Constrain Proportions

Choose "Pixels" from Drop down selection in "Pixel Dimension" Box
((instead of choosing percent))

Then type the width you need and try to match what you're looking for.

Else ? Don't Constrain Proportions and type in exact width-height.
(might warp image)

Click ok once you are done. You can always Edit \ Undo.

Research: Free Transform tutorial for this and more info about Transform (shaping) images.

Hope this helped. Good luck.




---Canvas size info.
Canvas is your drawing space. Aka.. The Painters Canvas.
Your piece of onion paper aka "Layer".
lets say you had an image 512x512 but wanted more workspace to do stuff next to it instead of in a different layer etc.
You could expand the canvas to open up more paper for adding to drawing or else workspace then reduce canvas also when done etc.
