I am trying to make a hi res from a image. Going to print I increase pixels but it does not seem to work. I am using version 2.10  Give me some detail and examples if you can.
Thanks

You are limited by the resolution of the image you started with. Most internet-sourced images have been down scaled to make web pages load faster. Some minor improvements can be made with G'MIC upscale or detail enhancers under G'MIC 'repair'.

I tried those online sites they just sharpen image but not what I am looking for. I added this image, the left part is mine using images I got online I used cloning and a bunch of tools, the image on right is what I am going for. It is hi-res. If you zoom in you can see it clearly.

It looks like coral made by minecraft Smile 
Larger image size (1000px wide or more) that look good will have better resolution. These look like thumbnails. Good quality phone cameras have made people used to hi-res images.

@doodle, what you need is a good AI graphic program because you can not convert something with no details to something full of details : some AI programs can do this because they 'glue' things together from other photos / pictures that the AI program 'learned / borrows'. Sometimes the result is acceptable, sometimes the result is a mess (not like the original that you want). Try some online AI programs, maybe you find some that give you an acceptable result.
