How can I zoom-in without having the image blurred in Irfanview? I need it for GUI development to see large pixels.

I found the solution by reading changelog

New display option: Use Resample for zooming (Menu: View->Display options)

So from "View" menu, select "Display options" and turn off "Use resample".

What you're looking for is technically known as "Nearest Neighbor Interpolation".

i would use an application like

  • Microsoft's ZoomIt
  • Magnifier
  • Photoshop

they all 'preserve hard edges of pixels'.
