Key Concepts in Image Resizing
- Aspect Ratio: The proportional relationship between image width and height. For example, 16:9 widescreen or 1:1 square. Keeping the aspect ratio locked prevents stretching.
- Interpolation: The mathematical algorithm used to resample pixels. ILoveJPG uses high-quality bicubic interpolation for smooth gradients and crisp outlines.
