Scaling without quality loss
#6
No, think about it. If you have an image 100 x 100 = 10,000 pixels and scale it down to a quarter to 25 x 25 = 625 pixels That is a great reduction in image quality. Blocks of pixels will reduce their area but lines made of 1 or 2 pixels are liable to vanish, scaled down to nothing. A pixel is the basic building block whatever the image size.

What you see on the screen is a representation of the result, just the same as zoom-ing in and out. Once you fix it then you lose those pixels.
