Its not always possible to find another - that's when I resize. Most of the resizes I do don't get too fuzzy - because the file, although 240 px in one variable or similar, is pretty high quality already - just appearing with a lot of empty space when I open the Book window (where I also now put menu links to all the lessons in an audio or video course for example) and that is a little annoying (but aesthetically - not functionally - so I could live with that if I had to. But the Resize PI makes doing that unnecessary). But because the starting files are often of a significant resolution - bumping them from the 200s to 700s in pixels does not produce a grainy or fuzzy image. I only encounter that problem with a few books - particularly older publications (in my main book library) that were never made available as ebooks - and are scanned copies.

Then I am stuck with whatever someone may have scanned and put up on the net - often low image quality - that doesn't resize well - unless I have a hard copy myself, and scanned the cover myself.
