I've stumbled across a PS issue I've never had before in five years. I'm running Photoshop CS (the first CS). For the last two days, whenever I use the crop tool and crop to the size in inches that I want, PS resizes the image to be 50 inches wide, no matter how large or small I started, and changes the resolution to fit accordingly. Of course, this is fixable by resizing again, but it's pretty aggravating to have to do every time... Anyone else noticed this or know what I need to do to fix it?

It's the setting on your aspect ratio it seems... i don't have CS at home but I have it at work and there's a setting either in preferences or something that resets your aspect ratios...

Believe it or not, I figured it out. What a goofball I am :) For future reference - somehow the value "50 inches" had gotten entered into the top bar across the screen. Who knows how these things get changed around. Thanks for your quick help!

When you hit the enter key on the keyboard, the cursor will jump to the first setting box of whatever tool you have selected. Sometimes you do this inadvertently and start typing thinking your typing somewhere else and you end up changing values like that. Also, if you have just clicked on a layer (giving it the focus) in the Layers palette and you accidentally hit a number key, it will change the transparency of that layer - sometimes you don't notice that either until 12 history steps later. Lesson: "Be careful of the keyboard" or "Do you know where your focus is?" ;-)
