Andrew D Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Hi,Is there a way to make a pic bigger without loosing the sharpness, cause when I make a pic bigger, it becomes more and more a mozaic thx No. It's impossible really. You can try this, though it won't always work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrddin Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Hello. Not possible in any shape or form. Sorry. This post by Forum member david.atwell may give a clue as to why: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?p=111638#p111638 Hope this helps.

Ethen Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I know a way. But it dosen't work on a lot images (I think black and white works best) How to: Open the picture (I took this tribal pic) Resize (yes, it is blured now) ----If the borders of the object aren't smooth do a gaussian blur with needed amount---- Now switch to Curves and do something like this The result should look like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkShock Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I'd have to say no. Every time you try to expand the size of an image than the image becomes more blurry.

BoltBait Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Depending on the image type, it MAY be possible: When using the menu Image > Resize, try the different resampling methods. For example, cartoon-like images would work best with the Nearest Neighbor resampling method.

david.atwell Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 As I mention in the post Myrddin referenced, you can try copying the image in Inkscape. It makes the image scalable without quality loss. But it'll be manual, and it'll take a while. :-) Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

dragunov Posted January 2, 2008 Author Share Posted January 2, 2008 hmmmm I guess it's all expensive if u want to do something like this But thx already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 No, seriously, it's not possible no matter how much money you spend. Not even Adobe Photoshop can do what you're asking. It's quite simply impossible - it would require the program to make up pixels that don't exist. It's like flying at speeds faster than light. It's just beyond the realm of possibility right now. Not just for Paint.NET - for every program humanity has ever created. If you increase the size of the image, the quality of the image will decrease.

Stephan Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 You could also vectorize every single pixel in the drawing, but that'd require a vector program which supports all RGB/CMYK colors. They're not there yet though. We need more programmers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not there yet though. We need more programmers... You'd end up with each pixel being represented as an actual square. Resizing that would be the same as resizing in a raster program using 'Nearest Neighbor'...

And really, is it worth the trouble? It would be like making a space rocket. A space rocket which could fly to the Sun and land there. Basically, it is physically impossible, it is technically impossible and it is mentally impossible. If not.....damn, I haven't got a hat....

david.atwell Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Yep. Until we can do this, there is a workaround: take better pictures. :-) Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...
