I know quite a few things about photo encoding (and am working on my own image format at the moment). I decided to use some of my knowledge to upscale these old cover arts. I did not use neural networks for this.




There are more to come.

Hell ya

Well Done!
Looking forward to see how this progresses.

these are quite good

am working on my own image format at the moment

really? tell me more

Wow, acid memories looks incredible! there's much less noticeable pixels than on the bocpages image.

A noticeable improvement for the both of them, although I noticed the Acid Memories image is a little stretched out in comparison to the bocpages image. Was that a result of the process, or did you use a different image? Great work, all round!

They shouldn't be upscaled. The devil is in the details.

For some reason, Imgbb which I have relied on for a while for image hosting has decided to stop loading my images for some reason.

You can view them at https://imgur.com/a/3reQ8hP also.

you increased the size by like 50 pixels each way. what is the point.

Thanks!! The bump in clarity makes these look great!

Cause I like the number 256.

so this is the power of AI upscaling?

Use something like RealESRGAN, it works a lot better than those dumb mobile apps that use proprietary models that only end up making the image look worse.

Also working on a Boc Maxima pic right now.
