How do you resize an Image without making a copy?

That's currently not possible, it needs the new memory to copy into.

Can you explain the issue? If you can transform the entire image with imageTransform without creating a new image then Image is mutable.
What is the issue with mutating to a lower resolution?

I'll take a look at doing an in-place minimize function.

Ok, I added a "resize" function, with the same arguments as resizeCopy. It will do the resize within the existing memory of the image as long as the requested size fits into the memory. If the requested size needs more memory, it will fall back to resizeCopy.

That sounds perfect! 🤩

Keep in mind I haven't tested it a lot. I'm sure there will be edge cases where the wrong pixels will be sampled. Can always go back to it if issues come up, but the solution to those problems would likely be a copy of the memory like resizeCopy so fingers crossed this is good enough.
