Use the crop tool (third icon down on left of your tool bar). you can set the width and height as well as the resolution and crop only what you wish from the image. Another way is to go Image-->Image Size--> can also set width height and resolution make sure contstrain proportions is checked if you do not want distortions.

You won't be able to such an enlargement. Even the specialty enlargement plug ins, like Genuine Fractals, would not be able to do that sort of enlargement. In general you cannot take a raster image whether from your digital camera, created from scratch in Photoshop or any other raster (pixel-based) program and make it larger. There is only so much data in the image, and even the best ways of enlarging pixel-based images are only making a best guess at where to fill in missing data. General rule is you have to start out with a big image, which you can shrink down, but not enlarge (you can always delete/remove data, but you can't add in what isn't there, which is what you are trying to do. It looks nasty because all you are doing is making the pixels bigger.) What you need to do is create that banner picture in Illustrator, which is vector based. Because vector programs are using lines, points, and curves, and work with mathematical calculations (which the computer does), they can be enlarged almost infinitely (it's called scalability). You can take your banner and place it in Illustrator as a template and hand trace it, or if it's not too complicated, uses flat color and strong contrast, you can try using Live Trace in Illustrator, which will turn the image into vectors. However, Live Trace tends to be rather tricky to use. Other than that, there really isn't any good way to make something that small into anything nearly the size you need.

Just click Image > Image size
Fill in the size you want. If you want the resolution to remain the same keep the resample box checked. If you uncheck the box the resolution will change to keep the amount of pixels the same.
Hope this helps.

To select the image for resizing use ctrl-t and adjust using the handles. for equalized adjustments use the shift key as you drag.

Change the pixel to size ratio.
