Default How to: Resize images using MS Paint?

While it seems most would know how to do this there are a few who don't.

Say you have a 950x800 pixel image like this one.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v324/IKS_TaNgO/li.jpg

Open it with paint.
On the Image menu, click Stretch/Skew.




Change the values for stretch to the desired percentages. They must be the same if you want the image to remain proportional.



Click ok and then save the image.


In my example I reduced a 950x800 image by 50%
The new size is 475x400.
