Hi Dave - I like Irfan but have found that using PS gives me more controllable and slightly better results when resizing. PS just has more options.
Have you tried the Save For Web feature in Photoshop? You can see previews of how the pic will look at different resolutions, and can have a choice of four versions to compare. Plus, you should be doing your sharpening after down sizing. Are you doing that?
