Sorry not good.  ;)

Images are dirty, fuzzy and low resolution (they should be 300 dpi).

They have to be rescanned, there is no way to "up" the DPI of an image. We actually prefer 600dpi that way we have a higher quality image to start with before we convert it to 300dpi.

Scan them at minimum of 300DPI, preferably 600DPI.

Don't edit them in paint as it autosaves to 96DPI and you screwed.

If you can't edit them, just upload the high resolution scans as raws and ask someone to edit them.

On the other hand if those are made from images downloaded from internet and that is why they are low res, then they are pretty much useless, so try to find better and higher resolution source material.

Ok, thanks. I did scan them myself. And I also edited them in paint which is why they ended up as 96 dpi. I will use something else to edit them or have someone else do it. Thanks for the Help!
