	When choosing your image, make sure it is the proper scale so details does not look too large or too small in game. The smallest scale setting in surveyor corresponds to an image 10 meters across, while the largest scale setting corresponds to 24 meters across.

Note that it is frequently possible to reduce the size of this texture without compromising the visual results. It is recommended to try a 512x512 or even 256x256 resolution.
