i'm new here, and i don't know if anyone asked this, so dont get mad, lol
i was just wondering if there is a way in photoshop 7 to increase an image's size without losing quality?
the current dimensions are 160x120, but i'm trying to get them up to 320x240. i tried resizing it using 'image size' and using bicubic to repixellate but it still looks blurry.
thanks. |

lol nope. You can always make things smaller, but never bigger (unless they are vector).
There's no easy way to do it. Sorta depends on the image. You might be able to clean it up. Post the image.

The only way to enlarge pictures is through fractals, the quality varies according to the size you are trying to achieve. Well known fractal plugins are S-Spline and Genuine Fractals.

|

There is a way you can resize the image to make it bigger. Taken from Scott Kelby's book "The Photoshop Elements book for digital photographers." (This tip also works dandy in Photoshop 7.0)
1. open the photo. (The photo can be 72 Dots per inch (dpi) or 300 dpi as it doesn't matter.)
2. go to the image resizing menu and make sure that BOTH the Resample Image and the Constrain Properties are turned on (have a check mark in the box.)
3. Here is where the magic happens (Steps 3 & 4). Switch the unit of measure pop up dialog from inches to percent.
4. then type 110 in and hit return.
5. repeat steps 3 and 4 a number of times to get the photo as big as you want it. Or make an action from steps 3 and 4 if you are going to be doing it a bunch of times to a whole lot of photos.
NOTE The higher the Mega pixel size of the original photo is (or was), the better your chances of the photo turning out.
Believe it or not THIS WORKS. You can turn a 3X5 in to a wallpaper sized photo that can fit on the walls in your house. NO GUFF! |

that's weird?
I get different results if I resize using the 110% method than I do if I simply resize.
The 110% method is more blurred, soften. I don't know if that's a good thing or not?
What's the outcome supposed to be. A higher quality image? a cyrstal clear larger image? I don't know what I'm looking for...
