title: Visual Basic Image Scaling
body: <p>Is it possible to scale an image proportionately in VB without one of the 3 or 4 built in properties (since they do not work so well)?</p>
  
  <p>What I am referring to is something that you can do in Java like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Image newimg = img.getScaledInstance(230, 310,  java.awt.Image.SCALE_SMOOTH);  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In Java the above line seems to work nicely for scaling the dimensions to fit a specified size.</p>
