Normal images look fine. Blow them up, they look like crap.

You can't make something from nothing. Blowing it up requires interpolating pixels. You need to start big and then reduce,, or use scalable graphics.

Edit:
It looks like you have some kind of weird transparency thing going on.

Edit2:
Or maybe anti copying stuff the originator added.

I blow it up to edit it, But all the black lines it puts in it makes it hard to see what needs fixing.
Bought CS5 for the wife. I have to use free stuff.

because you troll pfi. paint.net HATES that.

also, you're doing something wrong, because i just opened that image up there in paint.net and was able to scale it up fine. it looks pixelated, but you can't really help that. there were no black spots tho.

also, you're a noob. turn off the pixel grid.

Thats bullshit. When I deal with the kiddies at college I know darn well all they do is hit facebook and 4chan. Aside from that they are useless.

Most old people can't even do that. My Mom needed help last week because "her internet" went away... somehow her homepage got changed from Yahoo to Google and she couldn't figure out how to navigate to Yahoo :hmm::hmm:
