   Click to select if you want to resize your photo using percentages or pixels. You’ll see the numbers change next to their dimensions (horizontal and vertical) to reflect what you’ve selected.

   • For example, if you’re more familiar with percentages, then use percentages, so you can quickly resize a photo from 100% to 25%. An image that’s 700px horizontal will switch to 100% horizontal depending on which measurement you choose to use.
   • If you want to maintain your photo’s look, click to check the box next to «Maintain aspect ratio.» If you change the number for the horizontal or vertical size, the other dimension will automatically update to maintain the current aspect ratio of the photo. For example, if you choose to maintain the aspect ratio and update an original photo with the dimensions 100px x 100px to 75px, then the other field will update to 75px to maintain the original aspect ratio.

   Change the numbers for the horizontal and vertical values. If you have the box checked next to «Maintain aspect ratio,» both numbers (pixels and percent) will change accordingly when you edit a number.

   • If you resize the photo without maintaining the aspect ratio, the 100px x 100px ratio will be lost when you update the horizontal range to 75px. You’ll instead have 75px x 100px, so the image will appear distorted.

5.

   Click OK. You’ll see this button at the bottom of the pop-up window. When the window closes, your changes will take effect.

   • Press Ctrl+Z to undo the resize if you don’t like it.
