This program offers you various methods to resize
digital photos including new STOIK Smart Resize
algorithm which allows to enlarge digital images up to
1000% without loss of visual sharpness. You will find
it useful for multiple tasks - from quality zooming to
increasing resolution of digital photos to creation of
good-looking photo thumbnails.
To increase resolution of digital photo one needs to
add pixels to those registered by camera or scanner
CCD. Color values in newly added pixels are calculated
by interpolating values of adjacent pixels in original
photo. The quality of resizing depends on the
algorithm used for interpolation, and with all
conventional interpolation methods such as bilinear or
bicubic, the interpolation results in blurred image.
This program offers in addition to standard methods
new Smart Resize algorithm developed by STOIK Imaging.
This algorithm makes intelligent zooming possible
through analysis of picture content for natural
textures, contours, and line art, and application of
