I am doing my garage in old signs/man cave stuff, etc. I do recall back in the day that the larger you made the original image the worse it looked. Is this still the case? I would like poster sized photo's to hang. THanks bud..

I'm going to throw my two cents into the jar as well here.

Basically, it depends on the resolution the photo was originally taken in and what device is being used to print it. A 1 megapixel photo is about 1200x900 pixels, depending on the camera's ratio, so if you stretch that to a poster its going to look terrible...but it's all relative. Assuming the photos were taken with 10-40 megapixel modern camera you should have no issues making them poster sized without too much filler if any. If your photo's raw size is very small then you'd need to add pixels, which there is software to do, although IMO that isn't really ideal.
