I don't think you will be able to do that digitally.  Easiest way I have found 
to improve that situation is to print it out as large as you can and redraw it, 
using the original as a base.  Then rescan at higher resolution.  That will 
give you a whacking huge file to downres as much as your little heart desires.

OT Working with Gifs

2007-02-04 Thread David J Brooks
The radio station has played around with some logo ideas and the owner
asked me to try something with the gifs he was given. One is some text
another is an old steam whistle with whistle noise and a radio
becon.
http://www.whistleradio.com
The res of these gifs is pretty low, under 80k and i am unable to
getthem with out the jaggies.

I think i can get the corel files and do something i have in mind but,
my question is:

Whats the best way to join two gif files into one. Is it realtivly
easy in PS or should i look into image ready etc.

No sweat in Photoshop:

- create new document that is larger than both GIF files
- copy and paste one, copy and paste the other
- fuss layers around until they're where you want them, etc
- when done, flatten and output to whatever file type you want.

Photoshop will work. First go into Image  Mode and convert the GIF 
images to RGB color (rather than Indexed Color, which is what they are 
now), then save them as Photoshop PSD files. Then, combine them in 
layers and save the layered file as a PSD under a new name. After 
you've done whatever wizardry you have in mind to the image, use Save 
for Web to create a new GIF.

PaintShop Pro (version 7, not sure about  later versions) comes with a

a
