My web app is coded in .Net and I've implemented a new feature where you can upload a headshot and company logo to a Cover Page for a report you can generate in our system. Pixel sizes for the Headshot 275x350 and Company Logo 330x130.
For some reason when a larger image is condensed down its blurry and when a smaller image is blown up its blurry. This makes sense to me, so my question is what type of tools are out there that allow you to upload a photo and then choose a selection out of the image to use that meets the required pixel size?
Apple, Google+, LinkedIn, etc all do this, just can't find the name of the app or API.
