An Image object is a place-holder for an image. You can lock the Image object if you want to make it read-only. Images can be any size but we suggest that you keep them reasonably small so as not to consume too many resources.
When resizing an image with the mouse you can hold the Shift key at the same time in order to maintain its aspect ratio. Alternatively, you can select the image object and select the "View->Position->Reset Aspect Ratio" menu item (also available on the toolbar).
