[mapserver-users] Resampling and image quality?

I'll be on the plane all day tomorrow, on my way to DC for the 
PostgreSQL East conference. If I don't reply, it's not personal. :)

M hm. This is the first time we've ever compared the PNG with the 
Mapserver output side by side, especially in a situation where the 
raster has text in it, so I'm also surprised!

The one I'm given for use in Mapserver, is the same PNG except left 
whole and with a world file added. The "plain PNG" version is sliced for 
use in a GTileoverlay, but is otherwise the same.

Or did I misunderstand the question?
