Some help...I need a photo enlarged.

[Osiris]

Could someone tell me how to enlarge the following photo and keeping the clarity of it? I would like it to fit on an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of printer paper and hang it on my campus apartment window.

Thanks a lot!

On edit: I don't own a cool graphics program like PhotoShop. :(

1. if you have Photoshop, or any

decent graphics prog just re-do it to the specs you need.

2. redo it

there is no way to blow up a little, net file like that into a letter size. if there is a magician here, i wanna here the secrets.

4. Photo didn't appear

For starters, if you have the negative, scan it instead... but the print will suffice too...

Scan it with a higher resolution, the highest optical resolution. That'll help when it comes time to size the print for the paper (8x11)...

That's for starters...

5. It's the Anyone But Bush photo..

that you'll find on the DU homepage.

6. Ah.

Couldn't you use a word processor, use the font (Arial would be a close match), and create the graphic using white text on a blue background?

Enlarging such a small image would reduce its quality greatly after a point.

7. Two tips

One - the best quality would be to recreate it in Word, not photoshop. edit: if I made that in PS or PSP Pro in 8.5x 11 it would be a nice little 5 or 10 MB file.

Two - this guy will email you the template.

8. "Word, not photoshop"

?

9. Microsoft Word does great on pics

.
.
.
you can either "copy" and paste into a Word Document

or

Insert "Picture from file"

then drag it around like a "window" - centre it, crop it and all -

right in Word

I make BINDERS of personal joke pics that way !!

on edit : spelling

AND

that works in Corel's WordPerfect as well - from 6.0 on up anyhoo
