Good policy, sometimes in haste I'll neglect to do that, and of
course, pay the price later.  When I do stuff like this, it's usually
from drugstore scans, if I really like the image, I save it for reference, 
then redo the scan high res, repeat the post process all over again, 
hopefully resulting in something decent enough to print to at least 12x17.

 >> One of my favorite Ansel Adams images is a 35mm photo of Georgia 
O'Keefe and a man ( a ranch hand I think - don't remember his name).  It 
fell off the line while drying and he stepped on it...somehow it worked 
out.  Really well.  I know what you mean about filters - I always look 
at them at 100% (pixel size).
