Imagine Size Restriction

[davidp]

We don't have a hard limit as it is dependent on many factors. We warn if you try to bring in an image with greater than around 12.5 million pixels (this corresponds to a 4K x 3K image). Pretty much any program will have the uncompressed images in memory as it is very hard to do any manipulation or to draw on screen using the compressed bits.

I know close to nothing about image files, but am I correct in assuming that when Dunkin suggests changing the resolution this would not impact the pixel limit?

Any advice would be appreciated.

I'd suggest contacting Anna directly and explain what you're trying to accomplish. She's easily the best person to be able to provide files optimized for Realm Works (and doesn't have to worry about as many pesky licensing laws, since she's making her own original work available in another format). I strongly suspect you will also not be the only person who would be making use of such files.
