The pictures on /hr/ aren't resized from a normal resolution (well, except the ones in those shitty politics thread), they're originally in that size. /hr/ skills = finding huge images, not creating them.

Make big scans.

Oh, and use gaussian blur to get rid of the screen print stuff, those 4 color dots that create a moire pattern. Use it as sparingly as you can while still maintaining detail. Try scanning a pic from a magazine at say 600 dpi. Go in and correct it with gaussian blur. Zoom out and make sure you haven't sacrificed detail. After you do this, you might see where it needs other stuff to look as the photographer intended and not how your shitty scanner wants it. So you can try auto contrast to bring the whites back to white and the blacks to black. Whatever you do should be as subtle as possible to get a clean image as it was intended...

are you talking about using filters, or doing the whole thing by hand to get rid of the patterns that result from printing?

Or get a scanner that descreens it when it scans.

essentially you need a good source image to scan... newspapers are the worst, super high quality magazine (i.e. National Geographic) are much much better source... or an actual photograph can be a good clean source.
of course, you don't often get the choose where your source is coming from...
get a scanner (and scanning application) that has built in "descreening" function - this helps a lot. after that you can play with filters to try to reduce that moire pattern effect you get from scanning an image that was printed using the 4 color print process (i.e. pretty much everything; magazines, books, newspapers etc etc)
beyond that you can try to scan you image HUGE then reduce the size later - this also does a pretty good job of reducing the moire effect... but to scan HUGE you might need a good amount of RAM in you 'puter to process the data from the scanner...

now, if you have access to a more professional DRUM scanner then you are all set! they produce images much much better then any flat bed "home" scanner...
