Cropping a circle the right size

How do I crop a picture that is circular.  It has to be the right size, how do I do that?

I would use the circular selection tool.  Make your selection, Edit->Copy, then File->New.  It will automatically adjust the canvas size to the size of your selection.  Paste it on a transparent background.

LOL gee thanks VB Brett.  Jeremyjared74, you posted the exact same solution I posted before you, yet you get all the points.  Wtf IMO.

I wouldn't say it was the same exact solution
If you will notice I showed him how to set the ellipse tool dimensions from the top toolbar without having to create a separate file (which is the correct way).

I really don't care about the points, but if you feel you have been wronged you can request attention.
Also, you suggested the "Elliptical Marquee" tool, I mentioned the "Ellipse Shape Tool". The marquee tool doesn't allow you to set the dimension so it really is a better solution IMO. No hard feelings.
