Downsize them! If you open them up in MSPaint, then go to Image -> Stretch/Skew, put something like 25 in the first 2 boxes and press enter. That is how I shrink my pictures, and some times the blur goes away for the most part

lmao...um..it doesn't work that way however i wish it did...its not distortion from the size of it, its blur from motion...i don't have a typical digi camera...it is SLR inspired so its not just a typical, point, shoot and the picture is taken. a lot of the times i have to do things manually...thats why i need a tripod because of aperture and shutter speed priorities--which is what got me the other night...which is why it blured since i dont have the most steadiness or coordination...that and i dont use paint for p.s...i have a few programs that i use that i have downloaded and came with the camera and even trying to get them worked out on those, they were still bleh...not good.

Out of the blue? What led you to that conclusion. Did something happen after the sat meet? The S4 is different? I can't remember.
