make sure your original image and the destination image are the same Width
and Height.

No, this won't work (on Windows) because of the resize interpolation
routines used by MC (which are the same as the operating system). It's
called 'Nearest Neighbor' and it won't interpolate to a 'fuzzy' edge. A
bilinear or bicubic interpolation would work, but you'd have to create a
custom DLL for it.
