What every coder should know about gamma

Beautiful description and great examples. One thing confuses me. I'm actually using PS CS5 (supposedly the last 'correct' one?) and resizing figure 11 to 50% actually results in B, not C. Is there an option/setting I can use to fix this?

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the article. The only way I could get Photoshop to resize correctly was to convert the image to 32-bit first, do the resizing, then convert back to 8/16-bit (there might other simpler ways, though, but this is guaranteed to work). The image description actually describes this process.

I think it's oddly worded - it's wrong as of CS6, meaning at the time of CS6 it is wrong, and it got fixed after that?

It's wrong in CS6, and that the only version of Photoshop I could test it with.
