Magnifying a shrunken image --- without using imageData

[David Burgun]

Hi,

I think the problem is that it will still be very pixelated, it was 
when I was trying to do something similar. I came to the conclusion 
that the only way to do this properly was to work from the original 
image and scale everything to suit. It works great using my external, 
but I think it should work for what Roger wants using the technique I 
described earlier.

All the Best
Dave
