This MG was at a vintage VW show here in the Seattle area this weekend. Honestly I didn't take a whole lot of time working on this shot, but I'm relatively happy with the result. Let me know what you think.. good and bad. Thanks.

please click to see larger resolution since the resized image looks a bit ugly here.

It seems the IE doesn't do a good job of handling the re-size script. I'd really urge you to give FireFox a try. It's a far superior browser... or, if you are on a Mac, Safari is spectacular.

hmm... assuming I don't know what I'm doing with computers and that I'm using IE. Nice :D
I was using Firefox at the time.. and the diagonal edges looked pretty jagged. I'm using Opera now at home and it looks fine. I haven't used IE once in probably two years.

Joel. I'm trying to help.
We looked into the problem and could only replicate it in IE. We COULD NOT replicate it in FireFox.
I did not suggest you know nothing of computers... not that this has anything to do with what you know or don't know.
And... with respect to assuming, YOU assume eveyone else is seeing jagged edges. Your's was the first ocmment I heard. I've viewed the images in question on three browsers on my Mac ... including the no longer supported IE and two browsers on a PC... and did not experience the issues you describe. I did a follow-up on someone elses machine (Jim Sykes) this weekend and for the first time saw what you are seeing.
Again, no one is suggesting what you know or don't know. But, you seem to be harping on a minor issues that not everyone is experiencing.

first, note the :D in my last post. I'm hardly mad or upset or trying to be rude. Second.. I wasn't meaning to harp on anything or anyone. The jagged edges I saw when I posted the image from work was the first I'd seen of it as well. I didn't assume it was a problem with the site. My only thought was that I didn't want people to assume that my image was poorly compressed or resized and bring that up rather than discussing the actual image.
Now to the issue as it seems to be now.. I can recreate the jagged edges if I use Firefox here on my home desktop as well. However I do not see the problem when using my normal browser (Opera). My version of Firefox here at home is far from being fully updated (1.0.7), however the installation at work is running 1.5 (afaik.. may be wrong here).
