Nice !<br>
<br>
I had read that since GraphicsEx loads images as bitmaps you lost some
of the advanced features of the image format.&nbsp; Do you know if png files
retain their transparencies?<br>
<br>
This all looks very promising.&nbsp; I will forward this on to the man doing
the work :)<br>

I have some code that I wrote form bits of other code off the net that
resizes images so they dont loose any quality. But like how Photoshop
does it etc.....well nearly.<br>
I needed one that did scaling so that the aspect ratio was retained. It
seems to work ok.<br>

      <br>
We want to do some basic image manipulation. &nbsp;Specifically the following<br>
      <br>
1) open and dipslay Gif, jpg, and png image formats.<br>
2) Resize the above file format<br>
3) Save file back in resized format.<br>
      <br>
Does anyone have or recommend any code for doing such?<br>
      <br>
I have seen GraphixEx but it states it does not support saving of
images.<br>
      <br>
Cheers<br>
Rob<br>
