This may not work for you.
When I enlarge a character to anything over 200%, I do the following.
1. Get to the size I want it on BannedStory, or if I want it bigger put it at the biggest.
2. I bring it to photoshop, but i think this also works on paint.net, and if it isn't get it the size i want.
3. Blur features such as the hair, clothes, and possible face. Try to avoid eyes cause they should be sharp.
Final Result: A smoother, more realistic character that is easier on the eyes.
If you want to be careful, you can start the blur on 25% or so, but I use 100%.

An example of this is the hair of the two noobs in link

True. That blur effect is pretty badly done. Kind of randomly more blurred in some areas and no blur in others.

Not really the best tutorial for people who can't already blur in Photoshop/paint.net/gimp, and they would probably know this already.

So that's why it was blurry! I couldn't figure it out before

I don't think you should blur anything. People have come to accept the fact that the chars look digital when zoomed upon, lol

If you really want to fix that, I think Airbrush would be the way to go. It keeps a color consistency and avoids the bad quality of blurring. Ionno, just my opinion.
