Thanks to the 2 users who guided me to software to enlarge images and retain clarity, with a bit of reading and such, i have enlarged pics to use instead of small ones.
As I have mentioned in other message that Photoshop itself has image enlargement feature which works pretty similar to other stand alone softwares.
I never tried to compare for all small detail or difference between versions of Photoshop. But I have seen several comparisions by several others, and they all have some advantages/disadvantages. Or they have to zoom in real close to see some differences. To me, if they have to zoom in real close then it should be too close for me to worry, and I don’t want to spend few hundred bucks to buy a third party program so I have always use Photoshop’s own enlargement.
And if you want to know how then I can give you some general info.
1. *IF* the original image isn’t a highest quality, then you may want to change to 16-bit mode (you can change to 32-bit but may not need it) before applying the enlargement
2. All you have to do is selecting Image Resize command, and instead of increasing the Size or Number Of Pixel you change the PERCENTAGE and that’s it.
There are several option at the bottom but I always use the default so I don’t know the difference. Also, I only use this for large print (poster size) or DVD label from a low quality image (like 70-150K size).
Thank you
