I made a Father's Day photo with layers but when I print it, it is slightly crooked and has a white border on the 4x6 paper. Don't think I asked for a border, but I don't care so long as photo is straight. Can you tell me how to fix it in time for tomorrow? Confused

Thanks in advance!

Use the Measure Tool (Shift I or just a keypress I from memory.).

Find a horizontal point of reference in your picture or at least estimate what you feel to be horizontal, drag the Measure Tool out to your point of reference.

Use Rotate Canvas and move it Arbitrarily (again from memory so forgive if a little fuzzy) either clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Hope this helps somewhat, and am sure that your father will be delighted with your picture. :)
