: How to improve supersampling screenshots in designer's portfolio Look at iMac mockups on this page. Quality of skewed screenshots placed in the mockups are poor. Seems like photoshop knows too

@Tiffany317

How Photoshop interpolates an image when scaling is affected by the current default setting in Image > Image Size.... With CS6 and CC, leaving it on "Automatic" usually works adequately, but if you're not getting the result you want, try changing it to something explicit, such as Bicubic Sharper.

Since you're familiar with 3D, try 3D > New 3D Mesh from Layer > Postcard and see if that doesn't give you a better result.

I think it's the perspective which is inconsistent in your link, not the screenshots specifically. This seems more prevalent in the lower 3/4 screenshot. There's no attention to the existing iMac perspective, only the top edge angle.



Vanishing point would certainly help this.

There are many tutorials for Vanishing Point. And the entire point of the Vanishing Point filter is to match perspective of an existing photo.

I don't think you need actual 3D.
