Placing a photo on a player card

I have gotten as far as choosing a photo for a player card and am ready to "Move and Scale" the photo. However, whenever I move or scale the photo, the changes don't "stick" How do Imake the changes stick so that it will look good on the card.

Thanks!

I have found that if the photo is not at least as large as the white box you can't move or change the photo. I have had to resize some of my photos so that they fit in, or slightly exceed, the size of the box.

Whatever is inside the non-shaded area is what will appear on the Player Card. Be sure to choose a photo that at least fills the full area. It is a square area, so you will most likely be cropping any photo you take / choose.

OK.

But as I resize the picture smaller, the resizing doesn't stick. How do I get the resize to stick.

The image can not be shrunk beyond the width/height of the window. The iPhone (or iPad) is always going to require the image to stretch edge to edge in at least one direction.

How do you get the photos onto the iPad? I tried emailing them but I can't figure out how to access them.

Here is a link to one way of doing it:

If you email the photos to yourself on the iPad, when viewing the image, if you hold your finger on the image for a second or so, it will give you an option to "Save Image". This will allow you to put it in the Photo Album on your iPad, and you can then select it as a photo on a Player Card.
