> You set the new image size either by altering the size or the
ratio. You can also set the resolution of the image. If you lower
the resolution, the image will get bigger (in real units, but not
in pixels). You therefore have to compensate it with a smaller
pixels size if you still want the same image size but a lower
resolution. It will naturally be vice versa if you increase the
resolution. <SPAN
