Bitmap images get blurry in full screen - as expected?

I assume the bitmap images on my sprites will bet blurry in full screen mode? Is there any way to prevent that or reduce the blurriness?

These are my own images.

Bitmap is made of pixels so they are pixelated in full screen.

The only way to get rid of the “pixelness” is to recreate the Sprite in vector.

Yes, it's to be expected. Bit map images only look good at their created size. When enlarged they become blurry. And since you can't use an image larger than 480x360 in Scratch, on a big monitor it will look VERY blurry when enlarged!

But that's why we have the vector paint editor. Vector images never look blurry.

I don't know what to do, mine is blurry as heck when I make anything small. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hi there, welcome to scratch and the forums!
Please be more polite, and do not post on old topics with your own question. Next time, create your own topic with your question.
Thanks!

you cannot recrate them, scratch needs to fix their internet to reduce the bitmap pixel, just like the change pixelate by block.

You can use convert to bitmap in costume settings. If it is in bitmap mode no matter how big (size block) it is, it won't be blurry. If vector then yes.

Actually, scratch costume editor supports subpixels, making it actually 960x720

Other way around. Bitmap gets blurry when enlarged, vector doesn't.

that's not it. Bitmap images are made out of a pixel grid, which means if you resize it and enlarge it, it only has the resolution of the smaller image since it is a pixel image, and therefore is blurry.
