I want to decrease an 480 X 480 bitmap image size to 30 X 30 pixel size but keeping the whole height and width intact. (I do not want to scale or use height/width property! )
So if i divide 480/16 = 30. So i need to take average pixel values of 30 pixel elements and put it into new image.
How to take the average in actionscript 3.0? I looked at getpixels() method, is their any simple way/methods to achieve this?
Let me put in more simple way - I am trying to reduce pixels in an bitmap image from 480 X 480 to 30 X 30, the height and width remain same and i expect some amount of distortion after converting image to 30 X 30.
I did scaling but it reduces width and height, if i again increase width and height it just regains normal pixels. Thanks!

on the Bitmap (or Image.content, when it finishes loading) it should have a very similar effect. Another possible course of action: use a seperate thumbnail image. – primo
