To be precise, the right source code to use where algorithm to resize image is, can be take in this package :

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=207056&package_id=248124&release_id=544657

Code is pure C Ansi. It must be adapted to support 16 bits color depth. I recommend to backport this code in digiKam core (as digikam/libs/seamstress) and :

- Convert C Ansi code to C++.
- To use Digikam::DImg class as image data container.
- Implement 16 bits color depth support.
- Identify all parameters suitable by end users with this tool
- Make a small test program in command line to resize an image.
- When all is fine with algorithm, add a new option to current Resize Image tool of Image Editor with all identified parameters
- Implemented the the option in tool using the new C++ code from digiKam core.

Note : It not need to implement a new Image Editor plugin. The current Resize tool just need to be patched.

If somebody is interested to do it, let's me hear...
