It depends on the original image size, resolution, etc.

If you started with a smaller image and enlarged it to 100x100, then probably not (unless it was a scalable image like EPS or PNG).

If the original image was 100x100 and low resolution (<300dpi) then it will not scale without distortion.

Post the original image and I will look at it to see if it is scalable.

You will have to zip the files and attach the zip file.

Did you stretch or tile the image on the display cube?

Copying an image from a website is not going to give very good quality.

Did you apply the image in the Display Part Editor?

Here is a sample of what I think you are trying to do. I used a Display Cube with the image (one of the standard stone tile images) set to 20 rows and 20 columns then edited it in the Part Editor.

So can I take the shower pan I made from the room to the display part editor and change the image? What you did is what I want it to look like maybe a little darker tile
Ok I get it, forget what the line above says. I have to make a new base out of a cube then take it and make all mthe cuts in the part editor.

Yep (to the 2nd part). When you add the image to the Display Cube, experiment with the number of rows and columns instead of using "auto" to get the desired look.
