Quality loss in resized image

Hi all,

I am using a script to resize images bulk from one folder and stored in another folder.

While I resize the large size images in to the dimension of 525x330 there is no quality loss.

But I resize the small size image to the dimension of 525x330 there is quality loss...


Can any body help  over this..

Thanks in advance...
