I have uploaded to my portfolio 3 versions of a football photo. One is the full size original. The other two have been downsized using different programs. I can't tell much difference myself but am not sure if I should trust my eyes or my monitor. Can anyone detect any difference? Which looks best on your monitor?

I see a slight difference in the color. Like zeuszen said, the original's saturation is better. I really could only notice on the red helmet though. They all seem pretty much the same to me.
Exactlly what zeuzen said. I can quite easily tell the difference in the texture of the grass and the edge of the white markings, the original looks sharper.
I think the original one looks better than all 3 and if you choose one downsized the 2nd looked better, slight differents in the texture and clearness of the grass. Great shot!
