ok, i think i have it. You open up a canvas at 1024x512 and put the image there. Then you make another one 512x1024 and put the image in that one. then you open one with the rite 512x512 size and put an image there. Then you combine them all and flatten or merge the layers together. Im using Gimp if that helps in any explaining of it to me. I can be a bit slow once i open a canvas in whatever size, i cant seem to go back and modify the size so i open up a few windows in the different sizes them combine them as layers to the orig one. I seem to have done something that made it work with two of the maps, but cant seem to get it to work with the third map. I am so sorry to keep bugging you about this, please bear with me. I am going to blame my slow learning on the fact my kids keep distracting me lol
