I have some drawings I made with an Intuos tablet. All of these drawings are 25x35 or so. The color of each pixel was very carefully selected. They're kind of like 'miniatures.'

I need to resize these. But I ran into problems. The images get dithered, and if I make them huge, blurred.

Here is the image at normal size. It happens to be dithered, but this is not visible.

enter image description here

I used the following two imagemagic commands, but they both produced blurring:

convert -resize 400% image.xcf image-2.jpg convert -adaptive-resize 400% image.xcf image-2.jpg

enter image description here

There are many more resize options in imagemagick. -scale looks like what you need.

Also, do not use JPEG for pixel-perfect "miniatures"; use PNG instead (or if impossible, GIF). JPEG is designed for photos and uses lossy compression, resulting in distortion clearly noticeable after scaling your provided JPEG sample.
