Hey everyone!

I’m making a website, and I need to stretch my image without keeping the proportions so I can have the same image but with different ratios. Something similar to this:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/readymag/original/2X/7/7f9f08a4c8bab2121480ad23f2762b49ee57002b.png)

Does anyone got a clue on how I can do this?  
Cheers 🙂

It is the exact same you included? Maybe use Shapes-w if so?

With the picture-w, you can reduce the container but this won’t alter the actual dimensions of the image you uploaded.

Yeah, I’m trying to achieve the same as above, but using the same image and stretching it in different directions.

I tried using the shaped widget, but it doesn’t stretch either. It keeps the proportions always the same. I even tried to add some code, but no lucky ☹

Well, R/m isn’t an image processor per-se; might be easier to create your images with a dedicated image tool and upload the “final forms” to the project.
