Actually if the orginal image was 64x64 and it gets blown up in Dom2, captured, then resized back to 64x64 you didn't lose much detail (yes some during the scaling process).
DomPPP, not Dom2 used 64x64.
Graphics which where new in Dom2 used 128x128 AFAIK.

And filtering can cost you quite a bit of detail, depending on what algorithm you use...

Btw. the "Great Mother" seems to be 64x64 pixels to me, even in Dom3 - not all graphics got replaced. Check the "Lady of Love" from Dom3 in comparison:

Yes, I think Kris has posted something regarding this, way back in time. [Doms 2. unit size can be 128x128]

Seems to me that You will have to ask Kristoffer for the images or premission to extract them.

I'm pretty certain that it is illegal to extract the graphix and use it in your own creation without premission.
