Hi all 

I have a rather general question, but I can't find the answer anywhere. For a presentation, I'm trying to explain why symmetrical images look asymmetrical when you pixelate them more roughly. 

My hunch is that a bigger pixel includes a larger part of the image's surface, but I'm looking for a more technical, thorough explanation.

If anyone could provide me with such an explanation, that would be very useful!

Thanks in advance!

Any example to show?
