image qualify lost on animated "grow"

[Cowtoon]

I have a bit map that looks very clear when I enlarge it on the screen, but
when I use the animated shrink/grow (Grow), it's look like the anlargement
of a low-res thumbnail. It looks terrible. Is there a way to work around
this. I'm wanting the image to grow to about 500% (starts rather small).
(using PPT 2003)
Thanks.

Try an animation sequence like this:
Start with the image at the final enlarged size

with previous > disappear
with previous Shrink 25% very fast
after previous appear
on click grow 400%

Hello Cowtoon,

If you start with the large image, shrink it down, then make it large again
(using auto reverse), the quality is maintained. So the trick is to somehow
cover the image when it's large, then time the exit of that cover to occur
just before the image re-enlarges (new word).

Very interesting. The part about shrinking it in "disappear" mode is very
clever.
Thanks. Useful!
