Example E of ReSizer Scaling:

For this comparison, the image is a detail of a sculpture along the Puerto Vallarta beach in Mexico. We've scaled the image up by 700% using both After Effects and ReSizer.

At right, the original fotoage, and the detail our comparison focuses on.

With After Effects' scaling, you can see artifacts and stepping throughout the image, particularly along the edges.

With ReSizer's Best (Smooth) algorithm, the stepping is reduced and a greater contrast is retained.
