This window will tell you the pixel lengths. Right click on the image
and follow
<span class="guimenu">View</span> ‚Üí <span class="guimenuitem">Info Window...</span> from the image window. I got another image from APOD
<a class="xref" href="bibliography.html#bibliography-online-apod06" title="Astronomy Picture of the Day - Disorder in Stephan's Quintet (2000 November 13)">[<abbr class="abbrev">APOD06</abbr>]</a>.
It is pretty big. (Not as big as Saturn though) You can see in the
dialog below, it is 2241 x 1548 pixels.

If you are just making a square out of a rectangle, like in the
<a class="xref" href="gimp-tutorial-quickie-crop.html" title="4.4.  Crop An Image">Section 4.4, “
<span lang="en" xml:lang="en">Crop An Image</span>
”</a>,
you need only to open the dialog and find the lesser length and use
that as described. Since this is very little information, and definitely
not enough to fill the space between the menu thumbnail and the dialog
screenshot in my layout, I thought I would run through some calculator
exercises that might help you to meet your image needs.
