How to break a picture in to segments.

chefdon

I'm new to photoshop. I have elements 3.0 on XP. I would like to take a photo shot with a 10 megapixel camera and break it in to 6 equal segments. Then resize and reprint for a wall hanging behind my couch. I hope I am explaining this correctly. simply put I would like to make a wall hanging of 6 segments out of 1 high res picture. Thanks for the help in advance

I'm not familiar with Elements, so I'll give you the easiest approach:

Use the rectangular marque tool, set it to a fixed size of 1/6 the width of your picture.

Select the first segment with the tool, then hit ctrl-X to cut. Now open a new file (ctrl+N) then ctrl+P to paste.

Do this with each segment.
