Importing resized battlers "shreds" the image; how to fix?

[Sooth]

Hey folks,

I have a number of battlers that work splendidly for what I have in mind, except that they're much too small. I've tried multiple programs and websites that deal in resizing, but every time I import a resized picture into RMXP, it "shreds" the image. The image comes out as shredded even if I export the file from RMXP, and they are never shredded prior to importing them. Also, the normal-sized images don't have problems.

How would I go about fixing this so I can use them in RMXP?

Thanks,
Kriss

Here's what I mean:

Try turning off the anti-aliasing when you resize them, perhaps? It might help.

It turns out that none of the programs I used *had* anti-aliasing, and this was apparently the problem. I made sure to get one with it, this time, and the situation has now been resolved. Thanks.
