Rescaling an Image

I am making a tile game, and I want to rescale all my tiles to 24 by 24 pixels.

tile:TImage = loadImage(path)

Now I need to rescale tile so that it is 24 by 24 pixels, but I dont know how. I would prefer not to setscale(x,y) every time i draw it.

Thanks, Will.

Images are loaded straight to the graphics card in BlitzMax, so to scale you need to use the memory based Pixmap objects which Images can then be created from:

img=LoadImage(ResizePixmap(LoadPixmap("blitzmax.png"),24,24))

Thanks very much, thats just what I needed.
