 Posted: Thu Aug 12, 2010 2:24 am Post subject: Reducing the size of logos |
 |
|
Im doing some work at the moment which involves reducing the size of several corporate logos.
Basically the logos I have are mostly very large sizes and high quality.
The problem im having and im pretty sure I cant do much about this is that I have to reduce these logos to 77 pixels by 23 pixels. A colleague of mine is saying that once they are resized that they don't look very sharp but I cant really see how reducing them by such an extreme and keeping the quality is even possible.
I have been reducing the image size and using bucubic sharper which im told is the best way of doing this and saving them as png24 files.
Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? Much appreciated.
Its probably important to mention that the logos are being sourced from google but obviously the best quality ones I can find. |

He basically means that if the image's size is redefined to a small size of pixels, then to a bigger size of pixels; the image will lose its quality.
If you were to do the opposite, which is reduce the size from a bigger size to a smaller size it will still be able to maintain it's quality almost as perfect.
How so? Lets start with the first example:
If you have a small sized photo and try to make it bigger, it will lose it's focus and quality. SIMPLY BECAUSE... It cannot recreate the quality it should of had if it were bigger.
Now how this makes sense the opposite way:
If you have a large sized photo and attempted to make it smaller, then it would still manage it's focus and quality. SIMPLE BECAUSE... It can create the quality it already has and be able to incorporate it's richness into the final piece that's smaller.
