You are upsampling. Interpolating (adding) pixels.
In PS 7, there are only 3 choices: Bicubic, Bilinear, Nearest Neighbor. PS CS has a couple of more.

At any rate, sounds as if you are using Transform in a layer. It will use whatever option is set as default (bicubic is default in PS 7 and before).

If you want to be able to change on the fly, best to upsample the image before dragging into the second image.

Or you can change interpolation default in prefs.

Hi!

Is it possible to disable/turn off anti-aliasing in PhotoShop?

Cos’ if you paste an picture in PhotoShop, for example, and you resize the thing, PhotoShop will automatically perform anti-aliasing on the image to make it look "smoother".

How do I turn this anti-aliasing off?

Thanks! 🙂

Thanks a lot, Phosphor and Mac! 🙂

Basically, what I wanna do is to change the settings such that when I transform(resize) an image, the effect is like in MS Paint.

No anti-aliasing or smoothing. Just rough, ugly and sharp pixels.

Good day,
Xeon.

Then use Nearest Neighbour in preferences.
