Open pic in paint, click on "image"(toolbar), - stretch/skew(or Ctrl+W) - then reset the %age in stretch from 100% to what ever size you want

You could always download a proper image editing program. The Gimp is available for free.

You need to install the following 2 packages

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/g...1.zip?download
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/g...p.zip?download

This gives you full photoshop type functionality so you can do alsorts to the image.
