Cropping And Resizing Images

[glennk]

Sorry if this is posted 1000 times before. I was wondering what people preferences are for cropping and resizing their images ?

I had been using a little program called webstyle 4, but Ive started getting paranoid that it was making the images loose quality. Ive moved onto serif photo plus 6 but Im still not sure its doing the best job. What is best and are there any tips and tricks or is it just a matter of resizing and pressing the button ?

Whenever you make a picture smaller it will get softer too and will need sharpening before saving.

I did a write up on Irfanview (free) for resizing pictures for the forum here
