I'm using the Unsharp Mask Filter if that is what you mean! Sort of a self
learner so perhaps not! I was hoping there was some magic software I did know
about! The image I'm concerned with has a zillion leaves so maybe I'm just
asking for something I can't get out of the image I have.
It's one of those images where I'm probably the only one that sees the flaws
when I'm standing 6 inches from it!
Thanks! You probably saved me a few hundred bucks! . . where should I send your
"save a buck" check LOL

Subject: Re: [artshow_photo] - Resizing - software
I had a copy of Blowup and Fractals but I've never felt they were any better
than the PS one. Before PCS-4 the recommendation was commonly to upsize in
10% increments--110% at a time. But CS4 supposedly fixed that.
I'd just give it a try in CS3 if that's what you have. See what it looks
like. Blowing up images will certainly not make them sharper tho, are you
sharpening them correctly?
