The same version of a picture often needs presenting in a number of different sizes. My software (Paint Shop Pro 5) offers four methods of resizing and my question is which is best for certain subjects?
They are described as "Smart size", "Bilinear resample", "Bicubic resample" and "Pixel resize". Trial and error reveals distinct differences when sizing down (the usual requirement), with some methods resulting in a blending and softening and others a blockier and hence sharper-looking result.
Any comments or advice welcome. Thanks.
