    Actually - sorry - it depends on what you mean by 'blow something up fairly large'. If you have a 10 by 10 square with a bitmap texture, and you increase the size to 100 by 100 - the texture size will get smaller, relative to the size of the containing square. So, if you didn't want this, you'd have to expand the bitmap 10 times in Illy, then reapply the texture (or go with some fiddly key-combo and do it in situ, but I don't favour this). Obviously, this'd be just as bad as bluntly expanding the size of the bitmap in any graphics program, which is the point you'd go back and fix it properly in PS.

    There. That's just about muddied the issue enough - my work here is done.

    • Mostly was trying to calm my paranoia about incorporating bitmaps into Illy. I thank you for your thouroughness. :)harlequino
    • No worries - I could've been a lot more concise, was my paranoia!detritus
