How do you increase the quality of an image i.e pixels, resolution. Is there a there a way to make the small image into a high quality image without distorting/bluring the pic etc?

If you watch too much TV shows and they always show someone saying magnify that and enhance the image and then it comes out clear with higher resolution. This is bogus. The resolution that you capture the images is the resolution that you will get. There is no way to get more resolution because the information is not there in the first place. You can however enhance the contrast, highlight, fill light, shadows, color temperature, sharpening, etc. See http://picasa.google.com/ for free software that can do this.

The fantasy of image improvement you see on those TV cop and spy shows is for entertainment and progression of the story line. The only people who use such software are in the military or intelligence services that can afford super fast computers and secret software development. Also, they use huge camera systems many feet across (think the size of a Hubble telescope in orbit but pointed down). The only place that can make more pixels in an image is the factory where the camera is made.

I don't think so, not without enhancement. For example, newspaper print doesn't look better when you look closer.
