I dont' think i was clear in what I was saying. I don't use adobe's resampler at all bicubic or otherwise. I was talking about the scenario in which I want a smaller print (say 8x10) than the native file that comes out of my camera (which is around 11x15 at 144 dpi). What I would do is resize the 11" side of the image (constrain proportions checked) to 8" which is 10.66" on the other side. This automatically raises the DPI to 210 because you are keeping the same amount of pixels for a small image (thus higher dpi) the file size remains the same and there is no upsampling or down sampling. Then I just shave off the .66" with the crop tool and send it off...
