Hello. Thanks so much in advance for your help. I have a lot of individual presentation documents that I created with libreoffice. In all of them I copied and pasted pictures from the internet. I recently switched computers and moved all the files to my new computer and downloaded libreoffice. When I open these files on my new computer the majority of the images are skewed - blurry, out of proportion, stretched, etc. I tried downloaded a version 6 of libreoffice because that is what was running on my old computer, but the images are still not showing up correct. Thanks!
Skewed means parallelogram shaped. You can skew an image in rotate mode by dragging the centre handles.
You can right-click on an image and select Original size to restore an image. If original size is not shown in the right click menu then it is already original size
If you change the layout of the slide, say from 4:3 to 16:10 the default is to fit the image to the paper. If you right click on the page and select Properties the Slide Setup dialog will appear. Select the Slide tab and you will see a check box for Fit object to paper format, if you untick that and on the same page change the paper format then the image dimensions will not be altered.
If you have a deck of slides that are stretched then leaving Fit object to paper format ticked and just changing back to 4:3 might well return the images to original dims. Of course you could right-click on each image and select Original size

Hey, Everyone. I actually figured this out. It was a resolution issue. The display resolution on my new computer is much higher than my old computer. When I change the display of my new computer to match the old computer I can see everything just fine. Thanks.
Thanks for posting your own solution. I had a similar problem but on the same computer, which is even more annoying. I think it’s because my laptop screen resolution is very high, but my connected monitor has lower resolution. This would explain why I had similar issue.
I am hoping someone would post another answer to this… The image shouldn’t do this if screen resolution changes!
I think the problem happens more often when the image is pasted directly into Present instead of being inserted from a file… Though I am not very sure.
