How do I change the size of images for a collage?

I am trying to create a collage in Photoshop CS4.  I have found info on this and know that I need to create the background layer and then drag the images I want onto the background layer, then free transform the images to make them the sizes that I want.  However, when I do this the image becomes distorted.  Is there some way to make the images smaller and still retain the integrity of the image?  As it works now the people in my images are getting stretched out one direction or another.  Any information, or direction to information would be greatly appreciated!!  Thanks!

I'm not the most experienced yet, so there may be an easier way.  But, first, the images and the background should be the same resolution...which you can check/change by going to Image-->Image Size.  Then after dragging to your background use the free transform from the corner, while holding down the shift key.  This will keep it proportional.

  • In IOS7.1.2 how can I change the size of type for Photo Album?

    I want to change the size of the type of a name of a Photo Album to match the size of earlier albums.  How can I do this?

    I am not sure, if this Will work on the title page:
    Edit text on a page
    Tap Projects, and tap the photo book to open it.
    Double-tap the page containing the text you want to work with.
    Do the following:
    Align the text: Tap the text box, and choose an alignment style from the menu that appears directly above the text box.
    Choose the font size: Tap the text box, and tap the font size you want.
    Make changes to the text: Double-tap the text box, and type.
    You may need to change the Book Theme to have a different title font size.

    pls help. i change the file preview of a movie file, and it shows that i have changed the preview in finder but when i open the folder on my dock, it shows the still of the movie instead.
    the image shows the film the hangover as an example. the movie poster is visible in finder, but reverts to a default movie still from the dock. this only seems to occur for mp4 files.

    its nothing to do with itunes, its movies form the internet. i got the file preview by taking an image off the internet, pressing command c and pasting it on top of the small icon in the get info section

  • Changing the size of images displayed when a thumbnail is clicked

    In an Aperture gallery, how do I change the size an image is displayed when a thumbnail is clicked. There are sliders for changing the size of the thumbnail; I can't find an adjustment anywhere for the size an image is displayed when the curved arrow in the upper left hand corner is clicked.
    Help!

    Hi Kenoli,
    In an Aperture gallery, how do I change the size an image is displayed when a thumbnail is clicked.
    Do you mean "double-clicked"? In "Browser" mode, when I click on a photo, nothing changes. However, when I double-click on a photo, it switches to "Viewer" mode.
    However, I'm missing the curved arrow that you mention. I can't find any photos with a curved arrow over them in any mode. In fact, the only overlays are the badges in the lower right.
    Can you be a little more specific about exactly what mode you are in?

    TextEdit is not a very sophisticated program. As far as I know, there's no way to resize an image on the fly in TextEdit, so you'll have to follow Shotgun00's advice.
    I would advise not using TextEdit for anything real. Buy yourself a copy of Pages from the App Store instead, you'll be much happier with its capabilities if you intend to create complex documents containing images and text.

  • HT2523 how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste

    how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste

    If this question is about TextEdit, I don't think you can do it in TextEdit, after pasting the image.  TextEdit is meant to be a basic text editing program.
    You will have to open the image file in an image editing application.  You can use Preview for doing this, or something more fancy.  If it's Preview, just open the image file.  From the menu bar, under Tools, select Adjust Size.  Make the image the desired size.  Then, select (outline) the portion of the image you want in the Preview document window.  Copy it, and paste it into the TextEdit document window.

  • How do you change the size of pictures?

    Hello,
    I'm a new Mac user. How do you change the size of pictures in iPhoto? Sometimes when sending e-mails, the picture files are extremely large and take a long time to load... Is there any way you can make the picture or file smaller? Like on a PC, you can open the photo in the Paint program and just reduce the size... Is there anything like this for the Mac?
    Thanks!

    Assuming that you're accessing your email package from INSIDE iPhoto, you're given a choice of picture sizes. Personally, I've found "medium" to be a good compromise but you might prefer "small" (iPhoto will tell you the file size).
    If you don't know what I'm talking about, first go iPhoto Preferences > General and select your email client. Then, go to the View menu and select Show in Toolbar > Email.

    How do I change the size of the tools and the text for the menus in Photoshop?  I need a magnifying glass in order to make out what they are.

    Okay, I've figured it out, so I'm going to answer my own question in hopes that it may help anyone else that would like to actually be able to see what they're doing when using Photoshop CC 2014 on a high resolution screen.
    1.  Open Photoshop.
    2.  Select Preferences from the Edit Menu, then select General.
    3.  Change the HUD Color Picker to Hue Strip (Medium).
    4.  Select Interface from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
    5.  Change the UI Font Size to Large in the Text area of the Preferences dialog box.
    6.  Select Experimental Features from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
    7.  Select Scale UI 200% for high-density displays (Windows only).
    8.  Click on OK, then Exit/Quit Photoshop.
    9.  Open Photoshop and everything should be readable.

  • How do i change the size of the flexible space in tool bar

    if the feature, "flexible space", to customize the tool bar is truly "flexible", then how do i change the size of it?

    still doesn't make sense to me. this is what i've done...first of all, i installed FF4 and didn't like it. but i did play around with some of the toolbar settings to try to get rid of the new "add-on bar" at the bottom. so i went back to FF3.6 and continued to play with the toolbar settings. i put the google search in the menu bar, but wanted to space it to the left, off the right margin. that's when i discovered the "flex space". you can indeed put the flex space in the menu bar to shift an item (button OR google search box) to the left or right. where i run into an issue is, in order to shift an item from, let's say the far right margin to the center, i would have to insert multiple flex spaces or i could also use the other "space". although, the "space" is two or three times as wide as the "flexible space". maybe the trouble that i'm having is the name"flexible space" which seems to imply that item has a flexible width. both "flexible space" and "space" do exactly the same thing, except "space" is wider than "flexible space". am i right? did i miss something? here is a screenshot to illustrate.

  • How do I change the size of my screen, in Develop Module, so that I can access the Exposure Slide in the right-hand colummn?

    The right-hand column, under the Develop Module, begins with the Histogram and directly under the Histogram, the Tone Curve is seen.  Missing is the Exposure Slide.  How do I change the size of the screen to show the Exposure Slide before the Tone Curve?

    Right-click (Cmd-click Mac) on the tone curve panel header or any of the other panel headers and make sure there is a checkmark for Basic.

  • How do I change the size of a Spry Input Text field box?

    I created an email reply box, and then I created a reply message box. How do I change the size of each box independantly of each other? All I have is one set of Spry CSS rules!
    Oh, and the Working with the Validation Text Rule widget file in the Help Resource Center only covers changing the background color - Ugh!

    If I understand your question, you want to change the size of the input field that has spry validation?
    Spry has nothing to do with it, add a size to the field
    <input name="textfield1" type="text" id="textfield1" size="45" />
    <input name="textfield2" type="text" id="textfield2" size="25" />
