[filmscanners] Postprocessing - Resizing for screen display

["" <Al@greenspace.freeserve.co.uk>]

I know this has been asked before so my apologies for going over old ground!

When I scan my wife's slides, she normally likes a resized version for use as 
desktop wallpaper.  My problem is that, after I resize the images in Photoshop, 
they either don't look sharp enough or I manage to oversharpen them and make 
them look unnatural.  I have tried both USM and the high-pass filter but just 
can't get it looking right!  The originals are detailed enough - its just my 
poor technique.  (I'm no better at resizing my digicam images for the screen.)

What techniques do list members use to resize/sharpen screen display images and 
what USM etc values seem best?  I'm determined to produce an image which my 
wife actually feels does the original justice........


TIA,


Al
