I have some JPEGs that I am cropping to make new JPEGS. I am using 'PhotoStudio" to do this.
The original files, which came from a scanner, look pretty good in coverflow. The amended ones, which are only 25% smaller (basically I am just cropping the sides a little) look awful in coverflow, massively pixellated, you'd think there were only about 100 pixels in the images. But these same cropped images look fine when you view them in any other app including inbuilt Mac ones such as preview or quick look.
So, it looks to me as if , for whatever reason, PhotoStudio, is incompatible with cover flow but its also worrying me that maybe I could be getting better quality with a different editor if there is something strange about the JPEGs it produces.
Any ideas about (1) the coverflow issue, and (2) what I could use to do cropping instead of PhotoStudio? I am cropping to a fixed size so want a fixed pixel size rectangle I can move around the original image to select and then create the new one.
