- PhotoStyler has the ability to resample pictures to any resolution, and
- it can save as PCX. As an editing program, it is one of the most
- full-featured. Its interface is rather clunky, requiring one to do a lot
- of mousercises across the screen to modify the parameters of the most basic
- of touch-up functions.
-
- CorelDraw Photo-Paint and Cricket Paint 1.0 can scale. Cricket Paint is
- a pretty good paint program, but it's a bit slow (on a DX2-66, no less).
-
- Although you said you hate Shareware, PaintShop Pro will also resample
- images very well. All the above programs run under Windows 3.1 (so more
- so than others :)
