How do I stop picture stretching

from Stardock Forums

We just installed MyColors and like the versitility it gives our Windows 7 Starter machine.  To us it wasn't worth buying the upgrade to Windows 7 Home Edition.

The question we have is how to keep MyColors from stretching a "portrait" picture and distorting it.  What I did as a fix was to create a blank black picture at the resolution of our screen and then paste in the portrait picture trimmed and re-sized to fit.

Is there an easier way?

You can upgrade Win 7 for $30 if you have valid edu email address in the family. Google "windows 7 student steal" to get the correct site for your country of residence.

As to your question I think you found the best way with starter limitations.

Yes, there is. If you have Photoshop, or PaintShop Pro there are 3 methods.

I get the sense from your Post that you don't....so, the Doc is sending you to an On-line Image Resizer:
