When creating a high-resolution logo for a business or sports team, it is important to make it the right size. Too large of a logo may look bulky and overbearing while too small of a logo may look weak and insignificant. Before putting the finishing touches on a logo, resize it and make sure it looks its best. Resizing high-resolution pictures for logos is a snap; all you need is a picture editing program such as Microsoft Paint, which is included with several Windows systems.
Instructions
1. Open Microsoft Paint by clicking the "Start" button on the bottom left corner of the screen, then "All Programs," then "Accessories" then "Paint."
2. Open the picture you wish to edit by clicking the "Paint" button, which has a downward-pointing arrow next to it, on the top left corner of the window, then "Open" then the name of the file.
3. Click "Resize" on the top of the window to open a new window.
4. Click "Pixels" to edit the size of the picture using pixels as the measurement. Make sure the box next to "Maintain Aspect Ratio" is checked.
5. Enter the desired size of the picture. The box next to "Horizontal" resizes the width of the picture and the box next to "Vertical" resizes the height of the picture.
6. Click "OK" when done to resize the picture. To undo the change, click "Edit" at the top of the window and click "Undo."
