That is actually fairly impressive. I had used a similar fractal enlarger 3 or 4 years ago and was not impressed by the results.

Ya. It depends on the image, but I've seen some surprisingly good results trying to blow up small images with very little to go on, such as tiny low-res game sprites.

I believe around 3000*3000 it's nice.

If you can get rid the map of each total white pixel you'll do a nice job, since I'm not able in using Photoshop, however I believe I can click there and there with the photoshop paint to put the provinces ...

Ok, varsogod, eccoli, and all that.

These are both about 3000 x 3000 (three times original size).

The first one is here.

The second one is here and has a "sharpen" filter applied to it. It makes it less blurry-looking, but different. I suppose it's a matter of aesthetic taste which one every person will prefer.

I think both are free of pure white pixels.

They are all also slightly richer in color than the original. I thought this was an improvement and probably closer to the original artwork, but if you prefer, I can re-do it with the original's lightness.

Thanks!
The sharpened one is very good ... however there're still the white pixels in the corner, unless it's an error of the map editor ...

However now I try to do something with Photoshop to see if I can solve it by myself!

I hope to finish that map soon and to create a game with it on Mosehansen server.

It's a Dom2 Map Editor bug ...

I zoomed the map in the corner and there'ren't any white pixels...

I hope it's something about he needs to put at least 6 provinces and creates them where he sould start numbering provinces.

Now I try to put white pixels there and there and I'll see.
