Hey is there a solution for this when dragging or copy & pasting the picture? thankssss!

Answer by amybeader
If you are copying from a lower resolution image into a higher resolution document, the quality will decrease because you are trying to increase the size of something that doesn’t have enough pixels to support that change. If you are copying FROM a file that’s the same resolution as the file you are copying TO, this should not happen.

What amy said and you can copy your selection, right click it and convert it to a “Smart Object”, that helps if you are going to make something smaller and after that you decide to make it bigger again.
i agree with both…. depends on how your doing it exactly and what to what… pixel to pixel… dpi to dpi…. more details …, unless this gets you what you need.
