So to resize it, click Edit Transform >> Scale or simple Free Transform (Shortcut – Ctrl + T). You will notice a handler at the 8 colors. Hold Shift and Drag inwards to decrease the image size. Holding shift while dragging will maintain the proportions. If you also hold ‘Alt’ along with shift then the image will be resized from the center. After you finish resizing press ‘Enter’ to apply.
