Pixmaps are CPU not GPU based I think. Images are GPU dependent.
The pixmap I am creating is for a iconstrip. So the pixmap will not be displayed.
The largest icon option I want is 128x128 so the iconstrip will be 128x????? max.
I have found that it is the Windows CreateCompatibleBitmap that fails. So It Bitmap limit not a pixmap limit as I thought.
MSDN states 16Meg is the max bitmap size for Win98 but no mention of the max for Win2000/XP.
