The reason why it becomes distorted is because you want to extend the original width and contract the original height.

Try using a more suitable pair of dimensions.

What he ment is that you're now trying to 'switch' the dimensions of the picture. That means that you want to make the picture as high as it is now in width and vice versa. The very moment you try that, Paint, photoshop, GIMP, whatever, can't keep the quality of the picture because the pixels become 'stretched' in a direction they're not supposed to.

Those where my very own, made up words. Does any of it make sence/is right at all? XD
