I used paint to resize my picture but when I imported it to PCstitch PRO I still can't get the picture to show up without being blurry. Any help would be appreciated.

Angie, the best results are when you resize the image to about the size in pixels that you want the design in stitches. That will give you one pixel/stitch. When you import it, set the import width/height to match to assure this. You can add extra "border" stitch areas later.

It will often look a bit blurry and choppy because your stitches are "enlarged" but if you step back, it will look better.

Your stitched image will not have the clarity of the original. the stitches are much bigger than pixels and there is nothing we can do about that!
