Also, I've seen that you can resize by entering a percentage, but it cuts off some part of the sprite. Can I not specify the size initially?

Very frequently I begin the scripts for a sprite this way:
       When Green Flag clicked
       Go to x: ( ) y:  ( )
       Set size to ( ) %

I've never noticed that part of a sprite was cut off.  (Sometimes if I further adjust the size of the sprite I have to adjust its x,y starting point.)

But it's true that sometimes one has to fiddle with the size quite a bit to get it to fit where you want it.

With Scratch open and Cat, say, visible on the screen you can simply click the "change size by (10)" block and watch how it affects the sprite.  Or change the 10 to 1 (or a minus number) and adjust it gradually.

If someone knows how to get a certain pixel size I'll be glad to read about it!
