In our example we’ve used a 48px x 48px pixel art sword icon, and we’ll be enlarging it to 750px x 750px. It doesn’t matter how small your image is, this technique will work on even the tiniest of pixel art icons. Launch Photoshop, and open up the image you want to resize. This tutorial will show you how to properly enlarge pixel art without blurring in Photoshop. Pixel art graphics are often frustratingly small in size and you might find that when you try to scale them up in Photoshop the edges around the image and between pixels ending up looking blurry. You may also want to check out another helpful editing tutorial we posted recently, explaining how NOT to process landscape photos in Lightroom.In this easy-to-follow tutorial, we’ll show you how you can enlarge pixel art without blurring in Photoshop in four simple steps. Then head over to Kloskowski’s YouTube channel for more Photoshop and Lightroom videos. If you’re still skeptical, give this approach a try and see for yourself. He explains how the various settings work, depending upon whether you’re enlarging a vertical or horizontal image, your preference for working with inches or pixels, and a few other simple parameters.Īs Kloskowski explains next, the process is very similar for Lightroom users, and just as easy and effective. Kloskowski quickly runs you through the various options available in the Image Size panel, many of which mirror what you’d find in a plugin. What has changed over time, is the quality that results when you upscale images using this approach. That’s not surprising because this option has existed since almost the beginning of Photoshop. Not surprisingly, he begins with the Image menu and scrolls down to Image Size in the drop-down panel. Kloskowski uses Photoshop to demonstrate his simple method. I print big all the time, this is exactly the approach I use, and it holds up great for my prints.” Bluntly stated, however, he says, “I don’t think you need a plugin. Kloskowski admits that pixel peepers may be able to detect a tiny difference in quality between a photograph resized with a plugin, as compared to one enlarged using the process he recommends here. And in the quick video below, Kloskowski demonstrates how to get the job.
As a result, he claims you can easily and efficiently enlarge images in either of Adobe’s editing programs.
But one image-editing expert claims resizing plugins may be a thing of the past, if you have a relatively recent version of Photoshop or Lightroom.Īccording to popular photo instructor Matt Kloskowski, Adobe has been making significant behind-the-scenes improvements to the upscaling technology built into Photoshop and Lightroom.
One question I frequently get from friends is, “What’s the best plugin for enlarging my photos?” And I actually have a couple that I use often.
