Re: [Help] Increase DPI ?

DPI only matters when printing. For on-screen stuff DPI is irrelevant (well not entirely, it affects file size I suppose).

DPI = dots per inch. The denser this is (e.g. the higher the dots per inch) the better the print, generally (unless you're going for that half-tone look).

So, for a 4x6 print at 300DPI you'd need a pixel size of 1200x1800. For the same print at 150DPI you only need 600x900.

The best DPI is that which your printer/lab wants, whether that be 150, 240, 300, 600, or whatever.
