Good idea, although I don't particularly like PSP's resizing.  Definately
not as smooth as Photoshop's.

BTW, anyone have any really good resizing tips for shrinking to
thumbnails?  I usually reduce by 33%, then do an unsharp mask, then
reduce by 33%, etc.. until I get it to the size I need. While this usually
gives me a fairly sharp image, I'm sure someone has a
perfect way.. :)
