If I scale an image I know I will lose some quality. Assume I scale an image to 3x. I find that I over scaled it and then rescale to 2x the original size. What does Gimp use for the basis of the intermediate scale? Is it scaling down from the lossy 3x image? Or does it have the original image in memory and thus scaling 2x from the original image resulting in a better quality scaled image?
