OK say I got a picture I really like I wanna use for my desktop and its too small to cover the desktop.

how can I enlarge it without it getting all blurry? a program thats FREE is preferrable of course. wink

yerssot
I take the program promoted around here is irfanview
try that

Clovie
you cann't enlarge pic without getting it blury, methinks erm

TOH
Well, u can't do it in irfanview, but using photoshop or PSP is possible..

Clovie
but quality of the pic will decrease erm

TOH
It depends on the resize type.. linear, bicubic, pixel... confused

Clovie
really??? bag
for me it is always like. i trying to make pic bigger and then a lot of lil squares is showing up erm

rusky
no matter what u do, when u enlarge a pic, the quality WILL drop.. the algorythms (bicubic,linear etc) can help alleviate the loss in quality but the larger the difference in size from the original, the worse it will look..

Quality resampling software, that allows for enlargement of pics without noticeable quliaty loss, is worth thousands of dollars..

TOH
Yes, u can't keep same quality... but the question is how noticeable the difference is... Of course u can't enlarge 100 x 100 to 1024 x 768.....
