Tiny pixels make up digital images and with more pixels comes higher image clarity and sharpness. The best way to get high quality images is to turn up the camera's resolution setting before taking pictures. Pixels added after photos have been taken, won't do much to enhance the quality of your images. But raising the pixel count for your digital images is not difficult using Microsoft Paint, which is already installed on many Windows-based computers.
