I was surprised to notice a remarkable difference in the quality of image in Google Chrome when I was toying with some design ideas.

I plonked a RSS icon onto the latest posts box so i grabbed my overly large (400 x 400px) PNG icon and then shrunk it down to 25 x 25px, obviously this is not ideal because many browsers have difficultly in scaling down images without distortion.

So anyway below is an example of the difference between Internet Explorer 7, Google Chrome and FireFox and i think without a doubt Chrome really beats them with the scale rendering.

Apologies that this isn’t necessarily a useful post, just quite interesting at how Google Chrome has really taken browsers to the next step, and i look forward to the others catching up and seeing the next generation of browser, made for today’s web, not last weeks.
