[DUG] Resizing images

[John Bird]

Resizing images for Images, bitButtons and icons - I guess we all do this.

I have used IrfanView and Photofiltre for resizing images, and noticed they tend to alter the edge pixels around an image - I guess it averages the pixel colours on a sharp edge if resizing smaller. This is a problem with images with a background surround - these pixels are not the transparent background colour any more and create a ragged edge noticeable when the image is on a darker background.

How do others resize images properly?



(Example is the Analogue clock with the image background some are using- over a dark background you may see there are a fewer light pixels around the edge that shouldn't be there)
