how to create round corners / edges of an image in illustrator ?

I have googled a lot but everywhere I find round corners of a shape by going to "Choose Effect > Stylize > Round Corners."

But I DO NOT want round corners of a shape, I have a image (jpeg), how to cut the corners and make them round ?

please help

You can create a rounded rectangle and put it above your image. Select both (image and shape) and go Object > Clipping Mask > Make. This will create a mask and it´s a group.

You can acess Layers panel....open the group hierarchy..move the image and the mask as separated itens.

Thanks but I don't understand the last line "You can acess Layers panel....open the group hierarchy..move the image and the mask as separated itens."

What exactly I need to do here ?

according to your screen shot your <Path> is not yet <Clipping Path>

Did you follow the instructions from the first sentence of Gustavo's post?

Seems like you created a group only but not a clipping path. You don't have to create the group yourself, the group will be created automatically when you create the Clipping Mask and this will be a special group because it can't be ungrouped while containing a Clipping mask.

To select an object using the layers panel click the spot of one the little blue squares on your screenshot. The little box show that the item is selected. To deselect it click it while holding Shift.
