You could create a new bitmap at the size you need, and then draw the image onto it. This question has been asked several times before, if you would search for "create thumbnails" or something to that extent. There is even an example in the codebank if you look there.

Search the forums (vb.net and vb.net codebank) for MrPolite's threads on thumbnails. He has done allot in this area.
