If you use CSS to resize an image, you're relying on the browser's resizing algorithms. In many cases these trade off quality very heavily against performance, so they look awful. This isn't within MediaWiki's control as long as we're serving images. You can use sizing commands inside LaTeX, of course, like <math>{\scriptstyle \sqrt 2}</math>.
