Photoshop: use this setting to crop the image.
Click, hold & drag the cusrsor over the image to crop the image the way you want it.

Try holding down the shift key as you drag.

You can easily resize with Lightroom or OnOne Software Resize.

You may not have to resize before downloading. I download my images to Sam's Club (for example) in the largest size I have left after cropping for composition only. When I order a print the Sam's Club site will advise me if the image needs additional cropping so the image size and shape matches the print size ordered. If cropping is necessary the site allows me to do it on-line, and save the cropped image with a different name. With this method I have the original large image stored with Sam's Club so I can order a larger print without downloading again. If you do crop to a specific size at home make sure you save both the cropped image and the larger version. If you save only the cropped version you will not be able to order a larger version later without resizing UP, always a bad idea.
