    CC, with optimization 260,304.70 KB ImageMagick `-resize` 337,665.98 KB 52.39%

  11. 11 How does image resizing work?

  12. 12 685,936 pixels 189,739 pixels

  13. 13 …to 64 pixels? How do we get from 16

    pixels…

  14. 14 != resampling

  16. 16 …to 64 pixels? How do we get from 16

    pixels… Background interpolation

  17. 17 …to 64 pixels? How do we get from 16

    pixels… Nearest-neighbour interpolation

  18. 18 Nearest-neighbour interpolation

  19. 19 Bicubic interpolation

  20. 20 Nearest-neighbour vs. bicubic interpolation

  21. 21 7 colours 1,146 colours
