Thaddeus Crews2 June 2025Pre-releaseBrrr… Do you feel that? That’s the cold front of the feature freeze just around the corner. It’s not upon us just yet, but this is likely to be our final development snapshot of the 4.5 release cycle. As we enter the home stretch of new features, bugs are naturally going to follow suit, meaning bug reports and feedback will be especially important for a smooth beta timeframe.Jump to the Downloads section, and give it a spin right now, or continue reading to learn more about improvements in this release. You can also try the Web editor or the Android editor for this release. If you are interested in the latter, please request to join our testing group to get access to pre-release builds.The cover illustration is from Replicube, a programming puzzle game where you write code to recreate voxelized objects. It is developed by Walaber Entertainment LLC. You can get the game on Steam.HighlightsIn case you missed them, see the 4.5 dev 1, 4.5 dev 2, 4.5 dev 3, and 4.5 dev 4 release notes for an overview of some key features which were already in those snapshots, and are therefore still available for testing in dev 5.Native visionOS supportNormally, our featured highlights in these development blogs come from long-time contributors. This makes sense of course, as it’s generally those users that have the familiarity necessary for major changes or additions that are commonly used for these highlights. That’s why it might surprise you to hear that visionOS support comes to us from Ricardo Sanchez-Saez, whose pull request GH-105628 is his very first contribution to the engine! It might not surprise you to hear that Ricardo is part of the visionOS engineering team at Apple, which certainly helps get his foot in the door, but that still makes visionOS the first officially-supported platform integration in about a decade.For those unfamiliar, visionOS is Apple’s XR environment. We’re no strangers to XR as a concept, but XR platforms are as distinct from one another as traditional platforms. visionOS users have expressed a strong interest in integrating with our ever-growing XR community, and now we can make that happen. See you all in the next XR Game Jam!GDScript: Abstract classesWhile the Godot Engine utilizes abstract classes—a class that cannot be directly instantiated—frequently, this was only ever supported internally. Thanks to the efforts of Aaron Franke, this paradigm is now available to GDScript users. Now if a user wants to introduce their own abstract class, they merely need to declare it via the new abstract keyword:abstract class_name MyAbstract extends Node
The purpose of an abstract class is to create a baseline for other classes to derive from:class_name ExtendsMyAbstract extends MyAbstract
Shader bakerFrom the technical gurus behind implementing ubershaders, Darío Samo and Pedro J. Estébanez bring us another miracle of rendering via GH-102552: shader baker exporting. This is an optional feature that can be enabled at export time to speed up shader compilation massively. This feature works with ubershaders automatically without any work from the user. Using shader baking is strongly recommended when targeting Apple devices or D3D12 since it makes the biggest difference there!Before:After:However, it comes with tradeoffs:Export time will be much longer.Build size will be much larger since the baked shaders can take up a lot of space.We have removed several MoltenVK bug workarounds from the Forward+ shader, therefore we no longer guarantee support for the Forward+ renderer on Intel Macs. If you are targeting Intel Macs, you should use the Mobile or Compatibility renderers.Baking for Vulkan can be done from any device, but baking for D3D12 needs to be done from a Windows device and baking for Apple .metallib requires a Metal compiler.Web: WebAssembly SIMD supportAs you might recall, Godot 4.0 initially released under the assumption that multi-threaded web support would become the standard, and only supported that format for web builds. This assumption unfortunately proved to be wishful thinking, and was reverted in 4.3 by allowing for single-threaded builds once more. However, this doesn’t mean that these single-threaded environments are inherently incapable of parallel processing; it just requires alternative implementations. One such implementation, SIMD, is a perfect candidate thanks to its support across all major browsers. To that end, web-wiz Adam Scott has taken to integrating this implementation for our web builds by default.Inline color pickersWhile it’s always been possible to see what kind of variable is assigned to an exported color in the inspector, some users have expressed a keen interest in allowing for this functionality within the script editor itself. This is because it would mean seeing what kind of color is represented by a variable without it needing to be exposed, as well as making it more intuitive at a glance as to what color a name or code corresponds to. Koliur Rahman has blessed us with this quality-of-life goodness, which adds an inline color picker GH-105724. Now no matter where the color is declared, users will be able to immediately and intuitively know what is actually represented in a non-intrusive manner.Rendering goodiesThe renderer got a fair amount of love this snapshot; not from any one PR, but rather a multitude of community members bringing some long-awaited features to light. Raymond DiDonato helped SMAA 1x make its transition from addon to fully-fledged engine feature. Capry brings bent normal maps to further enhance specular occlusion and indirect lighting. Our very own Clay John converted our Compatibility backend to use a fragment shader copy instead of a blit copy, working around common sample rate issues on mobile devices. More technical information on these rendering changes can be found in their associated PRs.SMAA comparison:OffOnBent normal map comparison:BeforeAfterAnd more!There are too many exciting changes to list them all here, but here’s a curated selection:Animation: Add alphabetical sorting to Animation Player.Animation: Add animation filtering to animation editor.Audio: Implement seek operation for Theora video files, improve multi-channel audio resampling.Core: Add --scene command line argument.Core: Overhaul resource duplication.Core: Use Grisu2 algorithm in String::num_scientific to fix serializing.Editor: Add “Quick Load” button to EditorResourcePicker.Editor: Add PROPERTY_HINT_INPUT_NAME for use with @export_custom to allow using input actions.Editor: Add named EditorScripts to the command palette.GUI: Add file sort to FileDialog.I18n: Add translation preview in editor.Import: Add Channel Remap settings to ResourceImporterTexture.Physics: Improve performance with non-monitoring areas when using Jolt Physics.Porting: Android: Add export option for custom theme attributes.Porting: Android: Add support for 16 KB page sizes, update to NDK r28b.Porting: Android: Remove the gradle_build/compress_native_libraries export option.Porting: Web: Use actual PThread pool size for get_default_thread_pool_size.Porting: Windows/macOS/Linux: Use SSE 4.2 as a baseline when compiling Godot.Rendering: Add new StandardMaterial properties to allow users to control FPS-style objects.Rendering: FTI - Optimize SceneTree traversal.Changelog109 contributors submitted 252 fixes for this release.

All the Produce in Season in June (and the Best Ways to Use It)

Even as children, we in the U.S. learn that June brings good things—warmer weather, ice cream trucks, and most significantly, summer break from school. As an adult, all of those things still matter to me, but the arrival of summer produce has crept up to the top of my June list of good things. In this monthly article, I take a look at the fruits and veggies coming into season and some incredible ways you can use them. Let’s dive into June's offerings. Why seasonal and local produce is greatLong distance shipping for out-of-season produce is convenient, but there is usually a price to pay with literal higher prices or lesser quality. Using seasonal produce is a step toward supporting smaller farms situated somewhere closer to where you live rather than a monoculture farm somewhere far away. A big, healthy harvest with shorter shipping distances likely means a cheaper price tag for you. And hopefully the produce exhibits the best possible flavor profile since it doesn’t have to travel great distances to arrive at your market. Buying local and in season means you’ll possibly see a greater variety of tender greens and delicate fruits that don’t travel out of state well. Those little strawberries that pop up at the farmers market are so juicy and delicate you’d never see them packed up and shipped out across the country—they’d be turned into jam before they got a chance to leave. Go to those summer farmers markets downtown and reap the benefits of the juiciest summer fruit.  What’s in season right nowYou’re probably seeing it already, but everywhere from tiny produce markets to big box grocery stores are growing fuller with the very beginnings of summer produce glut, and the prices are dropping. Personally, I’m celebrating the low berry prices with morning smoothies.For those who are growing their own food, keep up with our Home and Garden section for tips.The new produce coming in for June:ApricotsSweet CherriesStrawberriesBlueberriesRaspberriesBlackberriesBeetsBroccoli Cabbage Garlic scapesGreen peasMustard greensZucchini & summer squashSay, "au revoir" to:AsparagusArugulaRampsParsnipsProduce in peak season:Beet greensLettuceRadishes and their greensRhubarbSpinachTurnipsChardSnap peasSnow peasNote that your specific region may be warmer or cooler, or farther away—so don’t worry if floods of strawberries haven’t arrived yet, or if you still have loads of wild ramps growing in the yard. Nature will do its thing, and we’ll continue trying to keep up.What to cook with your spring bountyFruitsJune is the beginning of having all the fun you want to have when it comes to recipes. Let’s start with fruit. We’re looking at loads of berries for the next few months and the beginnings of stone fruits, so I recommend warming up those ovens. I know that sounds too hot, but think of the pies! Cherry pies, Strawberry-rhubarb, apricot and blackberry, blueberry-goat-cheese tarts—you simply must make some. To help you along, here’s my fail-proof way to lattice pie crust, and my best advice on preventing soggy fruit pies. They’re well worth a read if you’ve had trouble in the past.If you’d rather be stuck in a room with a pack of wild 7-year-olds than make a pie, OK fine. Make a fruit trifle with leftover cake, stuff delicious biscuits with summer fruit and whipped cream, and why not take a crack at your own homemade berry ice cream. I made vanilla bean ice cream with a swirl of fresh raspberry compote and I felt pretty damn pleased with myself. If you’re shopping for affordable ice cream machines, I just tested and reviewed this Cuisinart.As I mentioned, fruit smoothies always welcome a handful of frozen berries. I should mention: Freezing your berries is the best way to reduce waste.If you’re using berries to top yogurt or granola, there’s no need to freeze it, but if you’re baking with fruit, making jams, or blending smoothies, freezing is extremely helpful. Pop the fruit in the freezer in the container it came in. After a few hours, they’ll be solid and you can dump them into a zip-top freezer bag for easier freezer storage.Vegetables All the cruciferous veggies are going strong right now, so go ahead and get that fiber. Use shaved broccoli and cabbage in a salad. Wilt spinach, chard, or mustard greens down in a hearty soup. My absolute favorite thing to do with summer zucchini is to make Thai kai jiao. You can use different vegetables in this dish, but zucchini is my all-time favorite. You also can’t go wrong with grilling big, fat planks of summer squash and drizzling them with a light vinaigrette. Got lots of crisp lettuce? Well, you can always bulk up your warm salads or do what I do and add it to every sandwich. Bacon, egg, cheese, and lettuce. Meatball parm sub and lettuce. Peanut butter and—OK, maybe not that one. Pay special attention to the fleeting produce like rhubarb, ramps, and scapes. They’re around for just a blink so grab them up. Try roasting your rhubarb with strawberries for a sweet, tart, and caramelized treat. Enjoy the best of June produce, and hopefully we’ll get a peek at tomatoes at the end of the month.

‘Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook’ Is a Pleasant Throwback to a Simpler Age

We may earn a commission from links on this page.Welcome to “Cookbook of the Week.” This is a series where I highlight cookbooks that are unique, easy to use, or just special to me. While finding a particular recipe online serves a quick purpose, flipping through a truly excellent cookbook has a magic all its own. My cookbook of the week is often a hot new release, unless I decide to spotlight one that has been out for a few years. But I haven’t done a real throwback cookbook in a while. My very first cookbook of the week was Hershey’s Best-Loved Recipes, and while not quite as old, this week’s selection has been my trusted companion for quite some time. This week I chose to highlight Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook not only because it is packed withrecipes for fabulous sweet treats, but because it always offers a nice break from the annoyances of modern internet baking.A bit about the bookTate’s Bake Shop is an actual bakery in the Hamptons on Long Island. It’s a small shop with creaky wooden floors and a warm atmosphere—at least that’s how I remember it from when I worked in Bridgehampton for a summer. I would occasionally pop in and grab some cookies, but this was long before I realized they were the Tate’s Cookies—before their green bags started popping up in every grocery store cookie aisle. You may have tried the crispy, flat cookies Tate’s is now famous for, but did you know that they make more than cookies?This cookbook is from the founder of Tate’s Bake Shop, Kathleen King. It turns out she makes a heck of a cookie...and a heck of a pie, and scone, and blueberry buckle. I love Tate's Bake Shop Cookbook because it’s filled with reliable, classic bakes. The entire Tate's brand is built on homemade, cozy, old-fashioned vibes, and that’s what you'll find in the pages of this cookbook. There’s nothing flashy about it. It’s not striving to be a part of your coffee table decor. The recipes are mostly one-pagers with short head notes and simple text, and you’ll only find pictures in the center section. This is a cookbook that’s meant to be dog-eared, annotated, used by your kids, and accidentally splattered with flour—a cookbook made to be loved.A great cookbook for a spoon and a bowlWhile I’ve owned this cookbook for nearly 15 years, I haven’t cracked it open in a while. I meandered through the recipes and marked some titles that caught my eye, or that I remembered being tasty. As I read through the short directions, I noticed some trends: most of the recipes are mixed by hand, several recipes are from family or friends, and King uses salted butter without a care in the world for anyone else's opinion. Seeing a cookbook, especially a baking cookbook, filled with short, easy to follow recipes is a breath of fresh air. Recipes that don’t require the use of an electric mixer are almost too good to be true. But here it is, each recipe is enticing in its simplicity: Sour Cream Pound Cake, Chocolate Jumbles, Sticky Toffee Date Pudding, and the recipe for the famous chocolate chip cookie that you know from the store. Reading these recipes feels almost soothing. Dramatic, I know. But I often feel like social media recipes and newer cookbooks are throwing everything at me at once to catch my attention. This cookbook seems less an attempt at impressing readers with being on trend or shocking us with new flavor combinations, and more like a collection of personal favorite recipes from your hometown baker. Baking from this cookbook feels like pastry meditation. No need to plug in an appliance or pause a YouTube video. Grab a bowl and a wooden spoon and take a moment to make something delicious. It’s great for a beginner baker, or anyone who enjoys baking in theory but hates dirtying too many bowls, or when recipes get complicated.The dish I baked this week

I love a cookie, but we already know how good the Tate’s cookie is, so I wanted to showcase something else. Luckily, blueberry season is here, and that made my decision for me. I settled on the Blueberry Buckle. Without taking a picture of the actual recipe, I want to illustrate the simplicity of this buckle: The instructions for the whole cake, with a crumb topping, are completed in 12 lines. The headnote includes a three-sentence story about how it won a bake-off in Maine, and how King’s niece improved the crumb texture. If you’ve ever just wanted a recipe to cut to the chase, this is it.A buckle is a cake-like treat with a crumb topping and fresh fruit mixed into it.The cake batter is easy to stir together by hand. Employing salted butter eliminates worrying about measuring yet another ingredient, and all of the other ingredients were readily available in my pantry. In roughly 15 minutes, I was ready to throw an entire cake into the oven. I don’t know that I’ve had a buckle before, but I definitely would have voted for this to win that bake-off. The cake component is utterly tender, and I don’t really know why or how—there’s no sour cream or buttermilk involved. It must just be a perfect balance of tenderizing fat and strengthening gluten. The ratio of blueberries to cake is also perfect. I know folks are always begging for more berries, but if you have too many then the berries sink or they make the cake too wet. The crumb topping is exactly as it should be—sweet, buttery, and lightly spiced. It’s good enough to eat on its own. I could see myself making this buckle for a picnic, or a friend’s summer birthday brunch. June is just around the corner, so I'll keep my copy of Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook handy for other berry-centric bakes this summer. How to buy itDespite being an older book, it’s still available in the hardcover. However, if you’re keen to save a buck, do check out your local used bookstores. Older books like this are almost always available used for a fraction of the original retail price. If you’re more of a digital baker, you can also spend less and download the ebook.

This week I chose to highlight Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook not only because it is packed withrecipes for fabulous sweet treats, but because it always offers a nice break from the annoyances of modern internet baking.A bit about the bookTate’s Bake Shop is an actual bakery in the Hamptons on Long Island. It’s a small shop with creaky wooden floors and a warm atmosphere—at least that’s how I remember it from when I worked in Bridgehampton for a summer. I would occasionally pop in and grab some cookies, but this was long before I realized they were the Tate’s Cookies—before their green bags started popping up in every grocery store cookie aisle. You may have tried the crispy, flat cookies Tate’s is now famous for, but did you know that they make more than cookies?This cookbook is from the founder of Tate’s Bake Shop, Kathleen King. It turns out she makes a heck of a cookie...and a heck of a pie, and scone, and blueberry buckle. I love Tate's Bake Shop Cookbook because it’s filled with reliable, classic bakes. The entire Tate's brand is built on homemade, cozy, old-fashioned vibes, and that’s what you'll find in the pages of this cookbook. There’s nothing flashy about it. It’s not striving to be a part of your coffee table decor. The recipes are mostly one-pagers with short head notes and simple text, and you’ll only find pictures in the center section. This is a cookbook that’s meant to be dog-eared, annotated, used by your kids, and accidentally splattered with flour—a cookbook made to be loved.A great cookbook for a spoon and a bowlWhile I’ve owned this cookbook for nearly 15 years, I haven’t cracked it open in a while. I meandered through the recipes and marked some titles that caught my eye, or that I remembered being tasty. As I read through the short directions, I noticed some trends: most of the recipes are mixed by hand, several recipes are from family or friends, and King uses salted butter without a care in the world for anyone else's opinion. Seeing a cookbook, especially a baking cookbook, filled with short, easy to follow recipes is a breath of fresh air. Recipes that don’t require the use of an electric mixer are almost too good to be true. But here it is, each recipe is enticing in its simplicity: Sour Cream Pound Cake, Chocolate Jumbles, Sticky Toffee Date Pudding, and the recipe for the famous chocolate chip cookie that you know from the store. Reading these recipes feels almost soothing. Dramatic, I know. But I often feel like social media recipes and newer cookbooks are throwing everything at me at once to catch my attention. This cookbook seems less an attempt at impressing readers with being on trend or shocking us with new flavor combinations, and more like a collection of personal favorite recipes from your hometown baker. Baking from this cookbook feels like pastry meditation. No need to plug in an appliance or pause a YouTube video. Grab a bowl and a wooden spoon and take a moment to make something delicious. It’s great for a beginner baker, or anyone who enjoys baking in theory but hates dirtying too many bowls, or when recipes get complicated.The dish I baked this week Credit: Allie Chanthorn Reinmann I love a cookie, but we already know how good the Tate’s cookie is, so I wanted to showcase something else. Luckily, blueberry season is here, and that made my decision for me. I settled on the Blueberry Buckle. Without taking a picture of the actual recipe, I want to illustrate the simplicity of this buckle: The instructions for the whole cake, with a crumb topping, are completed in 12 lines. The headnote includes a three-sentence story about how it won a bake-off in Maine, and how King’s niece improved the crumb texture. If you’ve ever just wanted a recipe to cut to the chase, this is it.A buckle is a cake-like treat with a crumb topping and fresh fruit mixed into it.The cake batter is easy to stir together by hand. Employing salted butter eliminates worrying about measuring yet another ingredient, and all of the other ingredients were readily available in my pantry. In roughly 15 minutes, I was ready to throw an entire cake into the oven. I don’t know that I’ve had a buckle before, but I definitely would have voted for this to win that bake-off. The cake component is utterly tender, and I don’t really know why or how—there’s no sour cream or buttermilk involved. It must just be a perfect balance of tenderizing fat and strengthening gluten. The ratio of blueberries to cake is also perfect. I know folks are always begging for more berries, but if you have too many then the berries sink or they make the cake too wet. The crumb topping is exactly as it should be—sweet, buttery, and lightly spiced. It’s good enough to eat on its own. I could see myself making this buckle for a picnic, or a friend’s summer birthday brunch. June is just around the corner, so I'll keep my copy of Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook handy for other berry-centric bakes this summer. How to buy itDespite being an older book, it’s still available in the hardcover. However, if you’re keen to save a buck, do check out your local used bookstores. Older books like this are almost always available used for a fraction of the original retail price. If you’re more of a digital baker, you can also spend less and download the ebook.

Dr. Ella Hawkins Reimagines Ancient Artifacts and Prized Objects as Edible Replicas

Dr. Ella Hawkins Reimagines Ancient Artifacts and Prized Objects as Edible Replicas
May 31, 2025
Grace Ebert

Academic research is notoriously niche and often opaque, but Dr. Ella Hawkins has found a crowd-pleasing way to share her studies. The Birmingham-based artist and design historian translates her interests in Shakespeare performance, costume, and matieral culture into edible replicas.
Hawkins bakes batches of cookies that she tops with royal icing. Decorating takes a scholarly turn, as she uses tiny paintbrushes and a mini projector to help trace imagery of William Morris’ ornate floral motifs or coastal scenes from English delftware. Rendering a design on a single cookie can take anywhere between two and four hours, depending on the complexity. Unsurprisingly, minuscule calligraphy and portraits are most demanding.
Ancient Greek Pottery Sherds
Hawkins first merged baking and her research about a decade ago while studying undergraduate costume design at the University of Warwick. She decided to bake cupcakes based on Shakespeare productions that her class examined. “It felt like a fun way to look back at all the different design styles we’d covered through the year,” she tells Colossal, adding:

I carried on decorating cakes and cookies based on costume design through my PhD, then branched out and spent lots of time doing cookie versions of other artefacts to keep busy during the pandemic.

She has since published an academic book on the topic and is a senior lecturer at Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. But she also continues to translate artifacts and prized objects held within museum collections into delicious canvases.
There’s a set made in collaboration with Milton’s Cottage, a museum in the country house where John Milton finished his epic Paradise Lost. Anchored by a delicately crosshatched portrait evoking that of the frontispiece, the collection contains typographic titles and signs that appear straight from a 17th-century book.
Delftware Tiles
Hawkins ventures farther back in history to ancient Greece with a collection of pottery sherds inspired by objects within the Ashmolean Museum. With a bowed surface to mimic a vessel’s curvature, the irregular shapes feature fragments of various motifs and figures to which she applied a sgraffito technique, a Renaissance method of scratching a surface to reveal the layer below.
The weathered appearance is the result of blotting a base of pale brown-grey before using a scribe tool to scratch and crack the royal icing coating the surface. She then lined these etchings with a mix of vodka and black food coloring to mimic dirt and wear.Other than a select few preserved for talks and events, Hawkins assures us that the rest of her cookies are eaten. Find more of her work on her website and Instagram.

How to Upscale Photos Without Blurriness or Pixelation

How to Upscale Photos Without Blurriness or Pixelation

In this article:See more ▼Post may contain affiliate links which give us commissions at no cost to you.Making a small picture larger without it turning blurry or blocky is called ‘image upscaling’. Suppose you make a small sketch on a sheet of paper and then attempt to stretch the paper, your sketch will get larger, but may look odd.
Computers follow a similar process when enlarging digital pictures. Consider you have a tiny patterned blanket and you want a larger blanket with the same pattern. Upscaling is like figuring out how to make that bigger blanket without distorting the pattern.
Psst... Did you know you can get unlimited downloads of 59,000+ fonts and millions of other creative assets for just /mo? Learn more »Traditional Upscaling Methods
There are simple ways computers make images bigger. These are like different recipes for stretching pictures.
Nearest Neighbor Interpolation
Nearest Neighbor is the most straightforward approach. Here, the computer just enlarges each dot.
It’s something like building with blocks – quite basic but can appear very blocky if you zoom in excessively on a digital image. This method works quickly but produces the most basic results.
Bilinear Interpolation
Bilinear Interpolation is slightly more advanced. In this method, the machine looks at surrounding dots and mixes their colors.
This method resembles color mixing to create intermediate shades between existing ones. The outcome is softer than Nearest Neighbor, but might be somewhat unclear or blurry.Get 300+ Fonts for FREEEnter your email to download our 100% free "Font Lover's Bundle". For commercial & personal use. No royalties. No fees. No attribution. 100% free to use anywhere.

Bicubic Interpolation
Bicubic Interpolation is the smartest of the traditional methods. Here, the machine looks at more dots around each point and performs more calculations to find out what should be in between them.
This resembles an artist carefully combining shades to refine an image. It produces superior results compared to the other traditional methods, yet requires more time for processing by the computer.

Popular Upscaling Tools
There are many tools available that can make your pictures bigger and sharper.
All-in-One AI Platforms
Picture increasing tools are quite plentiful out there, including the comprehensive platform, Cabina.AI. It has an AI In Painter feature with an Upscale function that makes your pictures larger and sharper.
Besides upscaling, it offers varied AI models you can use to create and fix images. A unique model includes the Magnific AI upscaler which excels greatly in improving the appearance of tiny photos when enlarged.
With such convenience, you can work on all your pictures in one spot without moving from one program to another.
Free and Specialized Tools
GIMP operates like a free digital art workspace on your computer. It’s capable of enlarging pictures using the traditional methods discussed earlier.
We also have ‘Waifu2x’ which is specifically designed to enhance cartoon-style images when they’re enlarged. This tool works particularly well with anime and illustration-style artwork.
Professional Solutions
Adobe Photoshop is like a premium art studio that professionals prefer. It packs excellent picture enlargement tools with advanced algorithms and fine-tuning options.
There’s also Topaz Gigapixel AI, a specialized software with only one purpose – increasing picture size using intelligent AI technology. This tool focuses exclusively on upscaling and often produces exceptional results.
Tips for Better Results
When you want to make a picture bigger and maintain quality, here are some helpful strategies to follow.
Start with High-Quality Originals
Always pick the highest-quality image available. Picture it like baking – using great ingredients makes your cake delicious.
Similarly, using a high-resolution original image grants you a stunning enlarged result. The better your starting material, the better your final output will be.
Set Realistic Expectations
Don’t expect miracles from any upscaling method. Turning a tiny, unclear photo into a flawless enlarged version is quite challenging, even for advanced AI.
It’s akin to predicting dinosaur appearance from just a tiny fossil. Sure, you could make educated guesses, but most likely there will be minor discrepancies from the original detail.
Experiment with Different Methods
Try various upscaling techniques to see which works best for your specific image. Occasionally, one method of enlarging an image outperforms others depending on the content.
Imagine it as testing different paths to school – some may be faster depending on the circumstances. What works for one image type might not work as well for another.
Scale Gradually
Rather than amplifying an image tenfold in one go, attempt doubling its size gradually, repeating the process as necessary.
Consider it like climbing stairs versus trying to leap straight to the top. Stepping up bit by bit usually works better and produces cleaner results with less distortion.
Apply Final Touches
Post-enlargement, improve the aesthetic appeal of your photo by tweaking colors or enhancing sharpness and contrast.
This resembles adding icing onto a cake to make it look more enticing. Small adjustments can make a significant difference in the final appearance.
Wrapping Up
Making pictures bigger is something computers can accomplish in many different ways. The simple traditional methods like Nearest Neighbor, Bilinear, and Bicubic work adequately for basic needs.
The newer AI-powered approaches can make pictures look much better when enlarged, producing results that seem almost magical compared to older techniques.
Remember that starting with a good picture helps tremendously. No matter how intelligent the computer algorithms become, they cannot perfectly reconstruct details that were never present in the original small picture.
As computers continue to get smarter, making pictures bigger will keep improving. Soon, the difference between a picture that was always large and one that was enlarged from a smaller version might be nearly impossible to detect, even for experts who specialize in image processing.

How to Upscale Photos Without Blurriness or Pixelation

How to Upscale Photos Without Blurriness or Pixelation In this article:See more ▼Post may contain affiliate links which give us commissions at no cost to you.Making a small picture larger without it turning blurry or blocky is called ‘image upscaling’. Suppose you make a small sketch on a sheet of paper and then attempt to stretch the paper, your sketch will get larger, but may look odd. Computers follow a similar process when enlarging digital pictures. Consider you have a tiny patterned blanket and you want a larger blanket with the same pattern. Upscaling is like figuring out how to make that bigger blanket without distorting the pattern. 👋 Psst... Did you know you can get unlimited downloads of 59,000+ fonts and millions of other creative assets for just $16.95/mo? Learn more »Traditional Upscaling Methods There are simple ways computers make images bigger. These are like different recipes for stretching pictures. Nearest Neighbor Interpolation Nearest Neighbor is the most straightforward approach. Here, the computer just enlarges each dot (pixel). It’s something like building with blocks – quite basic but can appear very blocky if you zoom in excessively on a digital image. This method works quickly but produces the most basic results. Bilinear Interpolation Bilinear Interpolation is slightly more advanced. In this method, the machine looks at surrounding dots and mixes their colors. This method resembles color mixing to create intermediate shades between existing ones. The outcome is softer than Nearest Neighbor, but might be somewhat unclear or blurry.Get 300+ Fonts for FREEEnter your email to download our 100% free "Font Lover's Bundle". For commercial & personal use. No royalties. No fees. No attribution. 100% free to use anywhere. Bicubic Interpolation Bicubic Interpolation is the smartest of the traditional methods. Here, the machine looks at more dots around each point and performs more calculations to find out what should be in between them. This resembles an artist carefully combining shades to refine an image. It produces superior results compared to the other traditional methods, yet requires more time for processing by the computer. Popular Upscaling Tools There are many tools available that can make your pictures bigger and sharper. All-in-One AI Platforms Picture increasing tools are quite plentiful out there, including the comprehensive platform, Cabina.AI. It has an AI In Painter feature with an Upscale function that makes your pictures larger and sharper. Besides upscaling, it offers varied AI models you can use to create and fix images. A unique model includes the Magnific AI upscaler which excels greatly in improving the appearance of tiny photos when enlarged. With such convenience, you can work on all your pictures in one spot without moving from one program to another. Free and Specialized Tools GIMP operates like a free digital art workspace on your computer. It’s capable of enlarging pictures using the traditional methods discussed earlier. We also have ‘Waifu2x’ which is specifically designed to enhance cartoon-style images when they’re enlarged. This tool works particularly well with anime and illustration-style artwork. Professional Solutions Adobe Photoshop is like a premium art studio that professionals prefer. It packs excellent picture enlargement tools with advanced algorithms and fine-tuning options. There’s also Topaz Gigapixel AI, a specialized software with only one purpose – increasing picture size using intelligent AI technology. This tool focuses exclusively on upscaling and often produces exceptional results. Tips for Better Results When you want to make a picture bigger and maintain quality, here are some helpful strategies to follow. Start with High-Quality Originals Always pick the highest-quality image available. Picture it like baking – using great ingredients makes your cake delicious. Similarly, using a high-resolution original image grants you a stunning enlarged result. The better your starting material, the better your final output will be. Set Realistic Expectations Don’t expect miracles from any upscaling method. Turning a tiny, unclear photo into a flawless enlarged version is quite challenging, even for advanced AI. It’s akin to predicting dinosaur appearance from just a tiny fossil. Sure, you could make educated guesses, but most likely there will be minor discrepancies from the original detail. Experiment with Different Methods Try various upscaling techniques to see which works best for your specific image. Occasionally, one method of enlarging an image outperforms others depending on the content. Imagine it as testing different paths to school – some may be faster depending on the circumstances. What works for one image type might not work as well for another. Scale Gradually Rather than amplifying an image tenfold in one go, attempt doubling its size gradually, repeating the process as necessary. Consider it like climbing stairs versus trying to leap straight to the top. Stepping up bit by bit usually works better and produces cleaner results with less distortion. Apply Final Touches Post-enlargement, improve the aesthetic appeal of your photo by tweaking colors or enhancing sharpness and contrast.

Every Detail in This New York City Home Is Sophisticated and Kid-Friendly

When Tom and Lia Higginsacquired their prewar apartment on New York City’s Upper East Side, they wanted to maximize every inch of the 1,900-square-foot interior. So the high school sweethearts, who have young kids and love to entertain, called upon Hee Designs to fully gut renovate the unit, requesting a balance between “child-friendliness and a sense of sophistication,” says the firm’s founder, Kellyann Hee.Hee, along with the firm's design director Julia Berner-Tobin, reworked the original three-bedroom, three-bathroom footprint, moving walls and ripping out flooring to fit everything from a large kitchen with a pantry and dining area for eight to a private bedroom wing so that the family could host guests without disturbing sleeping children. From there, they completely reimagined the home's furnishings, turning to durable-yet-timeless pieces that could grow alongside the family. The result is an elevated yet practical retreat that balances versatility with a timeless, tailored feel—an extra impressive feat, considering the quick nine-month timeline and the fact that the project was the hospitality-focused firm’s first foray into residential design.Fast FactsDesigner: Kellyann Hee and Julia Berner-Tobin of Hee DesignsLocation: New York City's Upper East SideThe Space: Three-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath across 1,900 square feetENTRYWAYGreen velvet wall art sets the tone for a muddy yet dimensional palette.Andrew BuiTable: Interior Icons.

In the entry, the velvet Leonard Meoni wall art, one of the only items the clients brought with them to the apartment, inspired further green accents throughout the space. “The entry opens into the kitchen and dining area on one side, where we have a dark green mohair banquette, and on the other side it opens to the living room with green accents in the art, book spines in the bookshelves, and mirror.”The finished design totally surprised us, in the best way.LIVING ROOMA plethora of seating caters to activities, day to night.Andrew BuiBuilt-ins: custom, by Rockaway Custom Cabinets & Restoration Shop Inc.

With design director Julia Berner-Tobin, she creates deeply personal, intentional spaces that transcend time through a mix of vintage pieces, existing elements, thoughtful new additions, and custom creations. “We believe, when a home is designed with care, honesty, and a real understanding of both the people who live there and the place they live in, you can feel it,” Hee says.SHOP THE SPACEMulberry Ottoman$1,000 at maidenhome.comArches Bunk BedNow 20% Off$2,799 $2,239 at West ElmNodu Rug$548 at enkay.comGrey Marble Bistro Table$1,699 at CB2

Cascadeur + QuickMagic | Video Mocap Cleanup and Editing Timelapse

This is a timelapse of how we made and edited the dancing animation from the reference. We used QuickMagic for the video mocap, then retargeted the animation in Cascadeur, used Animation Unbaking and Fulcrum Motion Cleaning tools to set up a solid base, then used AutoPosing to fix and edit the poses, and finally a touch of AutoPhysics to add secondary motion and bring the whole animation together

Shoutout to @doridance1389 for the inspiration and amazing content!
