you trying to crop (cut out a part of) or shrink a pic in paint?
to shrink something down to size, click on Image --> stretch/skew and use the percentage thingey to shrink it down. if you do both as the same percent (50% and 50%) it'll shrink it down evenly.
to crop somethin out of a pic, use the "select" button (looks like a dotted-line rectangle, directly under "edit") and then select what you want. cut, then paste. to crop out the rest of the pic, if you look along the lower and right edge, in the very middle will be a black dot "handle" that will let you move the boundaries up and over to make it smaller. i have a hard time finding it usually.
make sense? this assumes you're using windows, which may not be a correct assumption. :(
