I'm new to the software game and I have a question. In my flexi a took a picture, brought it into flexi, and I want to cut a square out. The problem is the square is not square so I can't just crop because the crop won't let me crop at odd angles. In the pic I would like to cut around the green.

In flexi, use Bezier Path Tool (hotkey: P) to trace around the edge of the green. Then select both the photo and the square you drew, and goto Arrange-> Mask. You can also rotate the image in Flexi so it's straight.

It's better to have two hands than one glove.
In Flexi use the transparency tool to remove the, I assume, gray surrounding the green outline. Then, depending on just what you mean by 'cut out', you can print and contour cut the non-transparent part. If you mean 'cut out' and have a non-rectangular bitmap, that's another subject entirely. Bitmaps ultimately want to be rectangular. There are ways, generally far too esoteric to go into here.

Is it photoshop?

Nah, someone already suggested that. While it's true this can be done in Photoshop... Sounds like the op can do it in flexi though, which is what I think they were asking.
