What software are you using to blow it up and center him on the screen?

Secondly, if you have the ability to create/draw a box (selection) around the desired area, do that and then see if right-clicking gives you a choice to "Copy". This puts the selection on the Windoze "clipboard". From there, you can "paste" to a new image by selecting "Edit" from the menu across the top. Of course, this process will have some variations from one program to another, but the basic concept is: Create a selection/box area, Copy, Paste/Create as a new image.

From there, you can deal will size/resolution of the new image.

As always, begin this process with as high a resolution as you can. A 3-4 MB jpg is good, a 40-70 MB TIF is even better, if your software can work with it.

I gotta run, but will check in again later.
