170KB, 960x540px
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to understand how large I can enlarge a picture without losing its quality. Is there some magic way to determine whether a photo will enlarge well, or not? Let's say I have a 160 kb image that I want to enlarge to 2x3 feet.

Short answer: no.

the size does not determine how good will it look on a printed surface, the resolution does. You can have an ultrahd black picture that has only black pixels and it will have a very small size. If this is your picture it will look crap.

some print websites say that they can enlarge any image from 1k to 3k with some type of algorithm so maybe try searching for them,
also this site works well for enlarging images without losing quality

How is this print going to be used?
Billboard ads are almost always upscaled since they are so far away that people can barely tell they look low-quality.
That being said, if your photo is crap to begin with, you arent going to be able to do much to fix it.
