One of the major issues with DBP was the inconsistency of keywords - make/create being the one that jumps to mind.
AGK has been excellent in that regards (so far) but I can't help thinking that ResizeImage() really ought to be SetImageSize() or we start to fall into the same hole that DBP was in.

I see your point, but I think SetImageSize sounds too much like setting a property, like SetSpriteSize, which is quick. Whereas ResizeImage conveys that there is a process going on that might take some time.

I agree with Paul. ResizeImage() is an exclusive command and SetImageSize() can only confuse some of us...
