If you want to resize a large photo you have to take the correct precautions to prevent losing too much resolution. Making an image smaller can make it appear blurry if you don't do it right. This can make the picture less clear than it should be.
Fortunately Adobe Photoshop has the ability to fix this issue with its advanced editing tools.
To perform this function you must own at least the CS version of Photoshop. If you don't have this version, you may want to get it as it has far advanced features. Buying the software will get rid of the limitations you may have when editing your pictures.
To reduce the size of an image go to Image> Image Size. Select Resample Image and then select Bicubic Sharper from the menu. This is the optimal setting for reducing the blurring of the image when you resize it.
When you want to make an image larger, select Bicubic Smoother.
This tool is so useful for resizing that you may want to select it as the default so that it is automatically selected when you start your Adobe Photoshop up. To do this go to Preferences> General where you can select Image Interpolation. Here you just choose Bicubic Sharper from among the selection and it should be set as your new default.
It is important not to perform multiple resizing on an image. To experiment with image size, use a copy of the original image as many resizings will reduce the resolution of the image more than is needed. Use the copy to find out what size you want then use the dimensions on the original to keep resizing to a minimum on the image you will finally use.
