and someone can delete my last post?

and if i had an 128x128 is it ok if i insert a flat size of 512x512

and why is it ti crappy and blured
512x512 is better then 128x128 its bigger and so you can add more details to it (correct me if its fail)

if you use a 128x128 and add a 512x512 texture to it it looks really crappy

.its better if you have 512x512 head then 128x128 body texture than having full 512x512. It too expensive to buy one full set of 512x512

I guess you don't know what exactly these numbers stand for yet, do you?
Those numbers are the pixels that can be shown on it. So you would have 512x512 pixels, 256x256 pixels or 128x128 pixels.
When you have a picture wich consists of 512x512 pixels but you upload it on a texture item that can only show 128x128 pixels you would lose many pixels and thus the picture wouldn't be very detailed anymore.
As an example I made a picture of my had with two different texture items. The head picture itself consists of 300x300 pixels (what isn't very good, because I could have way more in it but whatever).

gerFight: The site you uploaded your picture isn't allowed. Would you mind to upload it again so spitfired can see it?

spitfired: what gerFight said is right. I only have one question. How did you make your head texture? Im guessing that you followed the templates. To make it clear for you, those numbers are pixels or resolution of the texture as what gerfight said. If you upload it to a different resolution, it will distort the image. Try opening mspaint and open an image and then resize it. Some colors will be gone and only few colors were left. It will look pixelated by then.
I recommend you to read this tutorial about the sizes of textures.

512x512 textures are cool if you want to make complexe texture . If you make Paint texture , you don't need 512x512 texture (it can be better with 128 if it's not complexe)
I may test you .
Be careful .
