Gentlemen, should you re-size your photos before editing them, or edit them and then re-size ? Thanks Jeff T.

With the high pixel count on most images taken now it should not really matter, but I edit and then resize.

I don't think it matters too much, but I'd also say edit then resize. I feel like it saves time when you edit first and it might be good to have the original size around edited just in case. But if you need to sharpen the picture, do it after you resize. It should always be done at the last stage.

When using Lightroom the final steps are usually "resize" and "sharpen for intended media"
