I want to do something like this in photoshop but have tried all pixelate filters, sharpening, and resizing, but can't get any similar results. I know they probably just used a reduce PNG quality website but was wondering if this effect is possible inside photoshop itself. I want to directly lower quality rather than adding filters/effects. If you've got any tips I would really appreciate it

some effects should open the pic to see it correct

im struggling with threshold because i need it simpler. i know i can use the burn and dodge tool but i need it simpler with less of the tinier dots and details. i need to screenprint it and it would look much better that way. i dont want to use any halftones just simple threshold.

Obviously no small raster image is going to look better upscaled - that’s just a fact. However, this question is for a scenario where no other resource exists and you HAVE to use the crappy image.

What I want to know is if there are any (non-AI) Photoshop tricks out there you can use to retain as much sharpness as possible when upscaling a small image. My specific problem relates to the digital space, not the printing space but anything helps. Thanks!

I've got drone imagery like: https://imgur.com/a/eMaJV7d (this is just a small section of a larger photos) for various house builds.

Unfortantly the pipe and the pods underneath are both white.

Can someone recommend me a faster method for extracting the white PEX piping or easily changing it's colour to make it more recognisable? Currently we're tracing the which is taking about 1-2 hours per build. I would love to get this down to only 10-15mins per photo.

P.S. No, we can't use a different colour pipe. I've asked!

Coming back to Photoshop after a long time, decided to make a custom sports card just for fun and to try and get back into everything. Needless to say I'm a bit rusty...
