The quick answer would be to use the Shift-S in PSP.

Unfortunately this will not work well.  Your taking an image and resizing it
about five or six times larger, it will get very fuzzy or blurry.

When working with pixel style graphics like PSP 5.01,  I found I have to
retain copies of all original photos and scans in case I need to reedit them
later.  You need the original.
