    Hi am looking a large of New York’s Skyline at night?? Ive downloaded two of 123rf and bigstock and they arent big enough as they become very blurred. Its to go onto a wall size of 1500mm x 4500mm. Can anyone help me?? Tho it doesnt have to be New York, can be any city as long as its at night. Any help would be brilliant!!

    buy one? you’ll get bigger sizes that way.

    We don’t do signs for free, why expect artwork for free

    is it this?

    300dpi, so when made to 4.5mtrs wide it becomes 26.7dpi, i can see you would start to worry about pixelation. You need to then upsample the image using Bicubic Smoother image upsampling to say 70-100dpi, that should look nice.

    I have spent around £30 buying the biggest images i can and they still aren’t good enough.
