After doing so I will sharpen the layers at between 0.3 and 0.5 pixels at 240 to 300 percent. It works very well. What I do is use two colour layers and one B&W layer. I still use the "Soft Light" setting. I am effectively getting the impression of a 30.6 megapixel image. The pixels are all slightly offset. It really does work quite well.
Thought I would share that with you. Theoretically it is not 31.6 mega pixels, but it sure looks like it.

hi, thanks very much for this. I really like your stuff (just spent a good hour or so of works time looking through your portfolio - oh well
anyway will try it tonight. Is there are reason for sharpening after duplicating? just wondering as my thought would be sharpen then duplicate?
