andrewowaun Full Member Offline Posts: 202 Barbados	Graphics larger than your graphics card support - Mar 15th, 2010, 7:59am   I have images from flicker which are (3072 x 2304) This is way larger than my graphics card can handle. I know about Processing Tilesaver which you can use to create large images. How can I use that to load these humongous image sizes ?

Your problem is to load large images. Beside memory problems (just up the memory setting), Processing should have no issue in loading these. What is your problem exactly?
