I'm trying to resize an image while preserving the aspect ratio from the original image so the new image doesn't look squashed.
eg:
Convert a 150*100 image into a 150*150 image.
The extra 50 pixels of the height need to be padded with a white background color.
This is the current code I am using.
It works well for resizing but changing the aspect ratio of the original image squashes the new image.
private void resizeImage(string path, string originalFilename,
int width, int height)
{
Image image = Image.FromFile(path + originalFilename);
System.Drawing.Image thumbnail = new Bitmap(width, height);
System.Drawing.Graphics graphic =
System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(thumbnail);
graphic.InterpolationMode = InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;
graphic.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.HighQuality;
graphic.PixelOffsetMode = PixelOffsetMode.HighQuality;
graphic.CompositingQuality = CompositingQuality.HighQuality;
graphic.DrawImage(image, 0, 0, width, height);
System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageCodecInfo[] info =
ImageCodecInfo.GetImageEncoders();
EncoderParameters encoderParameters;
encoderParameters = new EncoderParameters(1);
encoderParameters.Param[0] = new EncoderParameter(Encoder.Quality,
100L);
thumbnail.Save(path + width + "." + originalFilename, info[1],
encoderParameters);
}
EDIT: I'd like to have the image padded instead of cropped

This should do it.
