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
  • 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)
Thumbnail
  • Resize with profile stripping
  • Designed specifically for shrinking very very large images to small thumbnails.
Short Summary ?
  • Use Scale for enlarging an image
  • Use Thumbnail for creating a image smaller than the original without profile data
  • Use Resize for other scenarios?
