how's that done?

Image>Mode>Lab Colors.

I dunno what difference that makes...

What settings do you use in the unsharp mask after resizing an image?

[QUOTE=jonl]I use a small program I downloaded from http://www.photocleaner.com - it does the good job on resizing and can resize a batch of images at once. The authors claim that they use a more advanced algorithm than PS. I dunno, but it seems to me that the pictures resized with PhotoCleaner are crisper than those resized with PS.[/QUOTE]

Same here. I use PhotoCleaner Professional and I like my results (and the easy of use) over PS. And if you do price comparison you'll find out that it's one of the cheapest alternatives available. I did Froogle, DePrice and PriceGrabber and found this 10% Off link http://www.deprice.com/photocleanerprofessional.htm
PhotoCleaner also has nice support - emails are answered the same day and I had program creator actually call me to resolve a licensing ssue. how cool is that?
