Closed (sort of)
TEOM as you know it has been closed. I will keep it up for reference but it no longer will receive tutorial updates.
There are plans for a completely new site. If you'd like to be notified once the other site is up, simply subscribe to my mailing list.
Thanks for the support throughout all these years :)

Removing the Automatic Crop Tool Rectangle
There’s an annoying feature (turned on by default) that automatically creates a crop rectangle when you select the Crop Tool, which can get in the way when you just want to click and drag to create your own selection. Another annoying aspect of this feature is that you don’t disable it through the Crop Tool options, which would be the most logical place.
In order to get rid of it, you must go to File » Preferences » General Program Preferences » Transparency and Shading and uncheck Automatically display crop rectangle.
