How to Increase the Resolution of an Image in Picsart

Have you ever added a photo to a design and found it looks too tiny, blurry, or not clear enough? Once you know how to improve an image’s resolution, creating better-resolution designs will be much simpler.

Resolution is the photo’s detail level, influenced by focus, lens quality, and pixel count. For printing, consider size and print quality too. It can also refer to pixels in the image or print.

Image resolution is the number of pixels in a digital picture, and it’s important for designers to focus on this. If there aren’t enough pixels, the image will look blurry or low quality. Sometimes, you may need to change a small photo into a larger one by increasing its pixels, like from 200 × 200 to 1000 × 1000. While it’s challenging to fix a low-resolution image, it’s possible. To improve resolution, you need to understand two main terms: pixel dimensions (image size in pixels) and image resolution (pixels per inch)

Many people think that web images should always be 72 PPI because of old beliefs about screen resolution, but this isn’t actually true. For images on screens, PPI doesn’t matter; what really counts is the pixel size (width and height). For example, a 200×200 pixel image will look exactly the same online whether it’s set to 72 PPI, 150 PPI, or even 300 PPI. A larger image, like 3000×2000 pixels at 72 PPI, will also print better than a smaller 300×200 image with the same PPI.

Most modern screens have resolutions higher than 100 PPI, not 72 PPI. For example, a 17-inch monitor might have a resolution of 800×600 pixels, and a 19-inch monitor might be 1024×768 pixels, with these settings usually being the best for those screen sizes.

When it comes to printing, some high-end printers may need images up to 600 PPI for the best results. Common printers like inkjet or laser typically print well at 200-300 PPI. For photographic prints, 300 PPI is ideal, while large posters can be printed at 150-300 PPI depending on how close people will be viewing them.

The difference between low and high resolution affects how clear or blurry an image looks. To get sharp, detailed prints or larger images, you need high resolution (more detail). Low-resolution images may look fine at their regular size, but when you zoom in, they can appear blurry or blocky because the individual pixels become visible.

High-resolution images have at least 300 pixels per inch (PPI), which is needed for quality printing and anything you want as a physical copy.

Resolution also helps you figure out how big you can print an image without losing quality. To calculate the maximum print size, divide the image’s total pixels by the resolution (usually 300 PPI). For example, if an image is 2,000 pixels wide, it can be printed at about 6 inches (2,000 divided by 300).
