Set the size of a loaded image

Question

I have the problem setting the size of an Image to a maximum value. Do you have a code example how to set the Image Size ?

System.Drawing.Image image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(stream, true);

In the first step I am loading the image from Stream and in the next step i want to set the image.Site.width to 800

You load image with original size. See [resize image](http://stackoverflow.com/q/1922040/1997232). — Sinatr, Dec 11 '14 at 14:44

You can resize the image by creating a new Image from it and specifying the size:

System.Drawing.Image resizedImage = new Bitmap(image, new Size(100,100));

If you want more control over the resize, you can draw it to a new image and set the interpolation mode:

System.Drawing.Image resizedImage = new Bitmap(100,100);

using (Graphics graphicsHandle = Graphics.FromImage(resizedImage))
{
    graphicsHandle.InterpolationMode = InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;
    graphicsHandle.DrawImage(image, 0, 0, 100, 100);
}
return resizedImage;
