How do I make my backdrop BIGGER in Scratch 3.0?

How do I make my backdrop BIGGER in Scratch 3.0?

if your original image is large enough, but is getting resized to be smaller when you upload it, it might be a difference in the ratio of the image. pixel-based images ( like .jpg, .png, .bmp ) need to be exactly 480 pixels wide by 360 pixels high to come out clear and nicely-fitting on the full backdrop.

one option is to use an image-editor ( like photoshop or pixlr ) to crop and/or resize it before uploading it to scratch.

another option is to convert it to a vector image ( like in this tutorial: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/168806754/ )

you could also re-size it to be bigger in scratch, but it might come out a little blurry or distorted.
