[AMRadio] Digital Pic help

[B. Morgan Sherrod]

Phil,

Be sure that you are RESAMPLING  as well as resizing the pics.  Most program
have a algorithm that adjusts the DPI as it resizes.  If you don't do this,
it WILL look jagged.  I always increase my DPI when I decrease the size of
the image.  Seems to work great that way.
