ImageMagick Sharpen Resized Images Reviews
Superb plugin!
Works well out of the box. I am using it with Shortpixel and Regenerate Thumbnails Advanced, and the thumbnails now look super-clear, yet they are half the size of the original blurry images. This is
Just what I needed
My photos looks awesome again thanks to this. You should look into the settings being reset, if the plugin was disabled. That’s the only downside I can think of.
Really sharpens image
Really sharpens image. Quality is not like into Photoshop, but default setting works pretty fine.
