What scope are you using it in? Do you have any other eyepieces and have you tried the barlow with them?

The 2X barlow will make the image bigger, but by how much will also depend on the focal length. Effectively it should 'double' the magnifcation. That it should look the same might be a factor of the quality of you EP, or the scope, or atmospheric conditions.
