 I can not figure the following out, so hopefully someone can help.

I have for example an image that is 600*300 in size. I wish to make a new version of that image where the end image is to be 450*300 but where the top  pixels are to be kept empty and the image is then to be inserted below.

Like the following example

How can this be done?

  In order to use padding with image, you can add padding.

  For example:

  http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/w_300,h_600,c_lpad,g_south,b_gray/face_center.jpg

  After the padding, you can change the padding background color.

  Please let me know if that answered your question.

  Thank you, I now see my example wasn't fully optimal to illustrate my problem, though the solution you describe solves the one shown on the image :) So thank you very much for that.

  Can you solve the one below. The image is scaled down on both width and height and then placed either on a larger canvas.

  Hi Dennis,

  In order to change the size of the image and then use a larger image/background. you can use chain transformation.

  For example in this case:

  http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/w_150,c_fill/w_300,h_600,c_lpad,g_south,b_gray/face_center.jpg

  Please let me know if that answered your question,
