I know that pic! wink Coming to a calendar near you. wink Sorry that was off subject. GOM, Always go for the Hires version. Well always if it's done well to begin with. There are many high res images out there that no matter how large thay are they will always be bad. Yes you can scale them down (that's a good thing), but you really just end up with more detail to begin with in a higher res well done image and that just makes good sense. Though the price difference will be a deterrent to some, if you can purchase a good high res over a so-so low res. But look out for any high priced so-so high res where a good low res will do. So I also agree that a lores image , if done well can work just as well. I've done many images that are only 1024 pixels square that work as well if not better than some images that were 4000 pixels square. What am I really saying? The quality in the image will determaine the quality in the render no matter what size, but the more detail (higher res) usually the better. Sorry if I took the long way around just to say that. James
