I'm building a tool to resize large jpegs down to two smaller versions. 
  The resized images look over-sharpened, with jaggedy-edges.  I can't 
tell if this is a result of how I'm doing it or if it's something else. 
  Here's basically what I'm doing:

$image_file=@imagecreatefromjpeg('temp.jpg');
$new_image=imagecreate($new_width,$new_height);
$new_image_name=$naming_convention.'.jpg';
imagecopyresized($new_image,$image_file,0,0,0,0,$new_width,$new_height,$image_size[0],$image_size[1]);
imagejpeg($new_image,$new_image_name,100);

Even tho I have the jpeg quality set to 100, the new images look way 
brighter, sharper and more pixelated, detracting from the quality.  Does 
anyone know if/how I can tweak this behavior?
