I have a photograph of a door and I want to paste it on a prim to make an SL door. However, the photo is not "head on", the camera was aimed at the door from a slight angle so the door in the photo is not a perfect rectangle. Is there a simple way in Photoshop (CS2) to fix this?

Use the crop tool with the perspective setting turned on. Place the 4 corners of the cropping mask on the 4 corners of the door, press Enter, and Photoshop will straighten out the image for you.
