Exporting to Photoshop

Hello.  I'm trying to render a scene to Photoshop using .png and when I open the file in Photoshop the image is very small and pixelated.  I've done this before and it's never happened like this.  Then I saved it as a .jpg and it was normal sized when i opened it but still very pixelated.  Any help would be appreciated.

You are rendering and saving the render (using the button at the bottom of the render window, or File>Save Last Render, or using the Render Settings pane to render directly to a file) and opening that in Photoshop, not just saving the scene (File>Save) and opening the 91 pixel-square thumbnail?

I'm rendering by Main Menu at the top, Render>Render then trying to save it as a .png and it seems to appear in photoshop a little bit larger than a thumbnail and very pixelated.

You know you need to set your choice of various VALUES  in the render pane right? Just as an example the 16:9 ratio is a popular size for various things like movies and related graphics, and it corresponds nicely to the 1920 x 1080 pixel screens that many people have. But you have to specifically enter the values!

Next, set the *size of the render*, in pixels. Again 1920 x 1080 may be a good size to start out with, but if you are making a movie poster (say) consider rendering to a large file size. If you don't like how the render is going, it's easy to cancel it and then go back to enter a different size, in pixels.
