           Summary: digikam resize should bin pixels together
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: luke.campagnola gmail com


Version:           0.9.2-final (using KDE 3.5.7, Kubuntu (gutsy) 4:3.5.7-1ubuntu13)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.20-16-generic

When I scale images down, I generally expect the noise to get smaller, but it appears that the scaling algorithm digikam uses (Editor -> Transform -> Resize) does not bin pixels together, resulting in the same level of noise, and in some cases aliasing.
