Well.. Inkscape creates *vector* graphics which do not use pixels. Just draw in Inkscape and then you get images that will scale to any size without looking pixilated.

If you're working with raster/bitmap images, such as source jpeg and other photos, you can use "Trace Bitmap" to convert such images to vector versions and then scale up the vector. Check the Inkscape Manual.

Can you help with this problem?
