You reverted several images I replaced under the argument that the original had higher quality. Most of those are here.

You seem to have misunderstood why I replaced them. I noticed, especially on the first few pages, that there was strange blurring on the text. It appeared the images had been upscaled in some way. A smaller image had been expanded to a higher resolution.

Compare. Especially around the edges of the text, where the difference is obvious.

At the proper scaling, the edges of the text should be sharp and clean. This is clearly not so in the larger image.

This type of blurring has been visible in images that have been taken from screenshots of Ebook reader programs, as copy protection often makes it difficult to extract the original image file itself, and these screenshots are often not taken at the precise native resolution of the source image. They are zoomed in.

So, despite the lower resolution, the images I had replaced them with are of higher quality. There is no blurring, because they are properly scaled.

This is why they were listed as "Proper scaling/Higher Quality" instead of "Higher resolution". This was not a claim I had made lightly. I actually checked and compared to make sure I was right in my observation that the images were upscaled, which they definitely are.

So, I would like to have your permission to revert back to the images I had replaced them with. A larger image isn't always higher quality.
