Hi there,
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.
Maybe it's because i'm an idiot, but the page you referenced confuses me because it's full of cross-links to terms i don't really understand.
Below is what ( i think) i understood.
Could you tell me if my summary is correct?
Resize
Most commonly used.
Scale

Resize
Most commonly used.
Scale
- a simplified, faster form of the resize command.
- great for showing a clean unblurred magnification of an image.
-
Less suited for minifying a real-world photograph ( it tends to look overlay sharp, with aliasing ('staircase') effects along sharp edges)
- Resize with profile stripping
-
Designed specifically for shrinking very very large images to small thumbnails.
- Use Scale for enlarging an image
- Use Thumbnail for creating a image smaller than the original without profile data
- Use Resize for other scenarios?
