Enlarging a logo

[glocko]

I've got a logo which is 162 x 177 pixels.
I need to enlarge it so that it is twice the size...don't have any publishing software.
How can I increase the size?? Can I do it in any office programmes without losing definition??

Use the Gimp www.gimp.org/ and then scale it. Easy peasy.

Try here.

You'll need the top two downloads.

OTOH, when you don't want to loose definition, you should vectorise the logo with a vector drawing program like Inkscape www.inkscape.org (sorry, don't know any appropriate free software for Windows)

If it's time consuming, the first one is most important

Thanks a lot chaps

No worries. Only takes a few seconds with the Gimp. Well worth getting if you are going to need to manipulate images in the future.

[annodomini2]

you can do it in paint.

[BliarOut]

But I've already done it
