question about my cpo
« on: June 19, 2007, 11:44:50 am »
hello, i'm trying to print my cpo which I found here - http://webpages.charter.net/rbecker5/images/cpo.jpg - now my question is when i blow it up, it gets all funky.  is there a way to get it to the size i need without it getting pixelated?  final size is 47 inches wide x 19.5 inches tall.

Unfortunately the way raster images (jpeg, gif, bmp, etc.) work, you can't scale it up and keep the quality. The only way to get around that is to start with a high-quality, large sized source.

I did some research, and used this software called Alien Skin Blowup - it actually impressed me.  The image didn't get pixelated, and looks pretty darn good, good enough to print for my cpo.
