[QUOTE="J-see, post: 423293, member: 31330"] I was reading up on scaling algorithms today and while doing, stumbled upon a small free program which, after testing, does a reasonable good job at scaling. It has some settings you can adjust to your liking and can handle more than one format. Here's some scaling I did of the first shot I encountered in my folder. They go from 100% to 400%. I used a processed shot which isn't the right approach since sharpening has to be done in the to be used size but even so, this is what they look like. Noise evidently becomes more obvious too.
