MP & Cropping

Howdy folks,

I was hoping some of you may be able to offer some advice. I currently use a 3.2MP camera and am looking to upgrade to a 6MP. I do heaps of image cropping because I do a lot of macro pics for my website. My question is this: If I have the exact same frame/image taken at both MP, then will the 6MP image when viewed a bit larger on screen look less grainy/pixelated than the 3.2MP?

For example, some things may only consume 10%-20% of the frame at maximum zoom so they become a bit grainy when 'cropped-up'. Will this be less noticable with the 6MP because there are more pixels? Does that make sense? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks, Jeff (.meteor)
