I'm not entirely sure what the origin of that distinction is, but my understanding (mostly from reading Tab's comments/responses on the Blink intent-to-implement thread) is that Nearest-Neighbor Scaling really doesn't look "pixelated" at all when scaling down, so authors asking for a "pixelated" look really don't want nearest-neighbor downscaling. The default scaling algorithm will do a better job of downscaling your image in a non-datalossy-way than nearest-neighbor would. ~Daniel _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
