The term "100% crop" gets used quite a bit, but don't understand the term.
I am hoping that someone will be able to explain the 100% bit for me.
Thanks.

When I use this term, I'm referring to a section of the image (crop) at 100% pixel size.
Usually, images are reduced for display on the web, because full size images are so large. a 100% crop lets you pixel peep without the overhead of a full image.

Yep, basically a cropped image where 1 pixel on the original is 1 pixel on the final.
Or, if you like, an image that has been cropped, but not resized.

Thank you - it now seems so obvious!
