I know that when it comes to resizing/resampling images, you always get a better result when resizing smaller than the original, than you do when you try to resize larger than the original. But I have some files that are pretty small (only about 100 pixels square) that I’d like to resize large enough (say, 300 pixels square) to make them a little more useable. Of course, the problem is that doing so causes them to look horrible…very blurred and pixelated (they are JPGs to begin with).
So I was wondering if there’s some "technique", or maybe a plugin, that does this kind of function better than just telling PE to resize the file?
I did find a PS plugin from Extensis, called pxl SmartScale, that sounds like it’s designed to help with this. But it’s $199, which is a little steep for me to use just for these few images.
Any other (CHEAP) plugins or methods that might work better?
