Guest guest Posted March 11, 2003 Report Share Posted March 11, 2003 Good clear scanned photo of Sw Vivekananda needed Dear List I am looking for a very clear photo (in the electronic format) of Swami Vivekananda for a book being published. If you have anything available; or if you are able to scan and email me a good sharp and well focused photo of Swamiji The image they are keen to use is the one of Swami Vivekananda n a meditation pose - London, 1896 <V-01.jpg>> So, if you have that one as a high resolution image (minimum 300 dpi) I'd be very grateful if you could send it to me. I'm happy to wait. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > Dear Jay, > > Many thanks for doing that so quickly.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 Hi - If you get any reasonably low resolution image then also you can increase the DPI in any standard image editing / publishing software like Adobe Photoshop. Hope this helps. Regards.

As far as I know, that would just make a bigger file size, not a better image. You can't restore detail (resolution) just by adding more dots. If the detail data is gone, it's gone. It's best to start with a high resolution image. Shivaram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 It's true information can't be created to make it high resolution however dispersing noise through out the neighboring pixels as well as creating more pixels with isotropic pixels(with good information) images can be blown up without compensating resolution. Some good imaging software can do the trick. I will post a few images using various filters which I wrote time to time.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2003 Report Share Posted March 17, 2003 Hi Shivram - I never said by increasing DPI you can make bad image look good. By increasing the DPI you actually fill some raw data to increase image size in some percentage for printing purpose. I also insisted " reasonably " . Hope this helps. Dont want to start a war here though :-) SRKChild. --- Shivaram <conte wrote: > On Thu, 13 Mar 2003 03:02:13 -0800 (PST), SRK Child > <srkchild > wrote: > > > If you get any reasonably low resolution image > then > > also you can increase the DPI in any standard > image > > editing / publishing software like Adobe > Photoshop. > > Hope this helps. > > As far as I know, that would just make a bigger file > size, not a better > image.
