You CAN permanently re-size an image with only a little bit of indirection.

Make the image the size you want, then make a new image and type these two lines in the message box:

set the rect of image 2 to the rect of image 1
set the imageData of image 2 to the imageData of image 1

Now image 2 has its "natural" size set to its current size. Go to another card in the stack and return and you will find image 1 has reverted to its inital size but image 2 has stayed just how you want it.

(It works because the imageData is the pixels as displayed, not the pixels at the original image size.)

Hope that helps.

It drives me crazy too because it's not clear how you turn off the 'revert
to original' feature permanently, for example if you want to repurpose the
image entirely and completely lose the original size. I mean, if I'd
altered the shape of an image in a graphics package, I wouldn't expect the
'original size' to haunt me forever, would I? I don't see an original size
as a 'natural' size; it's just what I started with, neither more nor less.
