I tried this:
string str = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(txtImage.Text);
string pth = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() + "\\Subject";
string fullpath = pth + "\\" + str;
Image NewImage = clsImage.ResizeImage(fullpath, 130, 140, true);
NewImage.Save(fullpath, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
public static Image ResizeImage(string file, int width, int height, bool onlyResizeIfWider)
{
if (File.Exists(file) == false)
return null;
try
{
using (Image image = Image.FromFile(file))
{
// Prevent using images internal thumbnail
image.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipNone);
image.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipNone);
if (onlyResizeIfWider == true)
{
if (image.Width <= width)
{
width = image.Width;
}
}
int newHeight = image.Height * width / image.Width;
if (newHeight > height)
{
// Resize with height instead
width = image.Width * height / image.Height;
newHeight = height;
}
Image NewImage = image.GetThumbnailImage(width, newHeight, null, IntPtr.Zero);
return NewImage;
}
}
catch (Exception )
{
return null;
}
}
Running the above code, I get an image 4-5 KB in size with very poor image quality. The original image file is no more than 1.5 MB large. How can I improve the image quality of the results?

I think you should use Image Resizer, its free and resizing an image is very easy using it.
var settings = new ResizeSettings {
MaxWidth = thumbnailSize,
MaxHeight = thumbnailSize,
Format = "jpg"
};
settings.Add("quality", quality.ToString());
ImageBuilder.Current.Build(inStream, outStream, settings);
resized = outStream.ToArray();
You can also install it using Nuget package manager.
