....to have the pixels enlargened, isn't there a much easier way?
You select the image, you change the size to somewhat smaller. You save the smaller image. THEN you enlarge it again, and you have a pixelized version of the same image. Isn't this true? You can do this in the simple programs, like in Paint
Then you wouldn't have to go the manual enlarging of the actual squares.
Or would that be the meaning of it all? That you'ld do it all manually?
