Enlarge image

[KillerBee]

hi,

I have an image for my custom cover but its to small. If im gonna enlarge the image and zoom in at 100% u see the quality of the image is not that good as it was in the small image.

Does anybody know how i can enlarge without quallity loss?

I thought u could do that in Photoshop CS2. I do have that programm at my laptop but first i wanna know if someone knows how i have to do this.


thx

that is impossible! you really shouldn't enlarge anything more than 25% or so.

ow, thats to bad .

owell. does anybody know some sites with some huge movie posters?

I got myself 2 sites of it but sometimes they arnt huge anough

that's the biggest issue for any cover artist. finding quality material. at least that's the biggest problem i have.....aside from PSP skills!

Here's a link to a 30 trial of Genuine Fractals, which can enlarge an image up to 800% without degradation. I've been using this program for about 6 years. It does an excellent job, but you must have a good source image, otherwise you have to remove jpg artifacts (they look like heat waves) from over compression. You usually won't see them until you enlarge an image. To remove them see my lesson on gaussian blur in the photoshop tips forum. I'm also going to post some poster and wallpaper links in the Tips & Tricks forum.

Here's the link.
