Re: How to re-size cut images
Hi Radish,
You can use the Transform command (not transform selection) to do that. With your cutout image on it's own transparent layer, select 'Edit>Transform>Scale'. The image will be surrounded by a bounding box with handles at the corners. While holding the Shift key down (to maintain the proper proportions), just drag one of the corner handles out until you're happy with the size. Hit the enter key to accept the transformation.
You might want to play around with 'Free Transform' while you're at it, just to learn more about transforming images. Here's a website that should be helpful...
