Thinning an Image

Use the Thinify tool to shrink or stretch the width of an image and make the subject look thinner or wider.

To use the Thinify tool:

  1. On the Browse tab, click the album to display thumbnail views of the images in the album in the Album View window.

  2. In the Album View window, double-click an image to open it in the Image View window.

  3. Choose Effects > Thinify to open the Thinify dialog.

  4. Adjust the slide control to shrink or stretch the image.

  5. Mark the Maintain Image Size to preserve the size of the image, while still shrinking or stretching the subject.

  6. Click OK. Paint Shop Photo Album calculates a new grid of image pixels, and shows the result in the Image View window.
