It is a menu image from a very old set I did with a former member here, I say former because I have not seen or heard from him in a long time, and now that it is re done I want to use the same images that he made up, but just resizing it makes it look terrible, so I am assuming there is some doctoring up that needs to be done.

Are you re-authoring or do you just want to re-jig the existing DVD files?

If you're re-authoring, grabbing the menu image(s) should be doable from the existing DVD. Repurposing that image into something that would be pleasing in 16:9 without stretching it would require some photoshop extensions or trickery or merely cropping top/bottom. The low resolution of the source image would require some legerdemain to avoid the image looking f-ed up, as you say.

I'd be happy to take a stab at it for you.
