What is the resolution of your image?  You need to work with a res of at=20
least 300dpi.  You should also check the "print" size of your image and=20
make sure it matches the size of the paper you are using.  Go to the Image=
=20
menu and click on Image Size.  You'll be able to set everything there.  It=
=20
sounds like you created your image at a low resolution and that's why you=20
get a pixilated look.

HTH!
