Editing Incubator escapee wiki:Basic bitmap image editing (section)

====Resizing====
Select <u>I</u>mage then Res<u>i</u>ze. You then get to choose the size of the image you want. Take care when resizing. The only way to make an image smaller is to throw away some of the pixels. If the image contains text, the pixels that get thrown away are not necessarily the ones that a human being would choose. If the top few pixels of the letter ''d'' are lost it becomes an ''a''. Sometimes the only way to render readable, resized, text is to use the magnifying glass to look really close up, then pick up the correct colour with the dropper (the button that looks like a [[pipette]]), and finally select a one pixel paint brush to paint the letters in a pixel at a time.(The size of the paint brush can be adjusted from the style bar, which can be found on the <u>v</u>iew menu).
