Photo sizes for Live Movie Maker

[dobbino]

When I upload photos into LMM, they fill the frame irrespective of the size or resolution of the photo. So small images then appear badly pixelated. Is there any way to resize the images so that, e.g. they only fill a section of the frame?

I dont think you have an option to control that. But what you can try is, create a large transparent .png image and paste your smaller image in it and save as transparent png file. Now when you add this image to WL Movie Maker, your smaller image will not be pixelated as its present within large png file

Thanks Vasudev - apprecaite your taking the time to respond. I did something similar using jpg files, though the transparent png file would have been a better option. My problem came when I used an animated gif file - I had to convert it to avi, but then couldn't resize it. It really would be of benefit to be able to resize the items after loading them into LMM.
