Prob downsizing too sharp lines


Hi all,
I'm having a hard time trying to downsize an image with some vy sharp lines, without getting a zig-zag result.

The image URL is:

http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/dynoGallDetail.php?photoID=526448&memberID=84394&memberGall=1


I have tried PS and ACDSee 6 with all available resize algorithms.
I'm trying to get it from 2560x1920 to 640x480 (for the member galery), which is a 25% resize.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  It may not look like that once it's in your gallery or site. You can resize it, and look at it with whatever your web browser is instead of those two programs, and see if it's still zagged.

  Hi Gregory and thank you for replying.
I had already uploaded it as you can see from the image URL I gave. It looks exactly the same since I resize the small dimention to 480 so it does not get more resize when proccessed by the site's software.

  something as thin as a hair might be unavoidable. the white against black makes it stand out even more. without a high resolution image and a very high resolution screen.
even film(35mm) wouldn't have a perfect straight line of a single whisker on it's negative.
