    I tried your server picture scaling as you did above and it’s kinda’ rough. Not sure about it. Maybe you can show another technique.

    As long as you are scaling down and you check the box for constrain proportions you won’t have any problems with the pictures looking rough.

    Contrast is one thing that makes the page attractive. The use and mastery of it in color, value, size and weight will greatly affect the site’s appearance and edge.
