    You guys may have seen a few post of mine in the past, I generally don't post that much, instead come and go to check on updates for things.

    I really need some help, no matter what I try I can't seem to get this logo resized without a big loss in quality. I've seen suggestions on ways to do it, but I don't know how to do those things myself. I know that no matter what there will be loss in quality, but when I try to resize it with Gimp it's even worse than when I resize it with Paint.

    Here's the deal... this is a smaller version of the logo, but with a background (also it seems that I didn't make it wide enough when I resized it). The image I need resized has no background with an alpha transparency layer. The image size is huge. I don't know why the guy that made that logo for me made it so big, but even he cannot resize it without a big loss in quality.

    I don't need the entire image shrunk, I just need the logo in the image shrunk down to 160x90 whichever way you end up converting the image is fine, like turn to Jpeg to resize better, or something. As long as in the end you save/export the image as a PNG.
    I will be using this logo for my OoT hack and I have a 1 dungeon demo I'm going to release within the next few days, or a week, but first I want to replace the logo in the game before I release it.

    Until I get it I will be adding more things to the 1 dungeon mod then what was originally in the hack I've been working on for a long time now.
    It's crazy how much detail the original logo in the game has even though it is so small.


    Here is a download with all of the logo files the one I need resized is named RLZelda only.

    This is what it needs to look like, just without the big loss in quality

    Not really the place to ask this, but anyway I thought I'd take a crack at it. This is the smallest I could get it before it started to lose significant quality. If you need any smaller you're better off with professional pixel art instead of resizing a 2160p image.

    Edit: Or if it helps, and you know someone that could do a better job, what I did to preserve some quality at this size is sharpened it first, as far as I could without causing weird artifacting, then scaled it down 4 or 5 times proportionally, doing any repairs along the way that were needed due to each successive scaling, but never scaling anything besides a whole factor of the previous size.

    Look for vector art, or make it yourself. And you should be working with 300dpi images.

    Well I started this thread because I tried it myself and couldn't do it. Also I've resized it to 160x160 keeping the logo in the image proportional. There's no need for any commenting in this thread anymore, next time I'll be sure to either make the logo smaller myself, or tell whoever else that makes it to keep the image small, so when I resize it to 160x160 that it is not so bad.
