<p>I use the ImageMagick crop command for this -- iirc pretty straightforward as per</p>

<p>I also have a somewhat hacky gadget for displaying the output interactively at different scales -- the avatar controls the display via an overlay on the lefthand vertical prim.</p>

<p>If you are allowed to use MOAP, then you could try <a href="http://www.zoom.it/">
http://www.zoom.it/</a> which works fine on a prim albeit that the app makes its own copy of the image in a special format on the server (in case there's any IP issue). It's non-immersive in the sense that avatars would not see the same view, takes a while
to process images and I've also seen what appear to be dividing lines at lower resolutions. It's a Microsft lab-type project so its longevity is also questionable. That said, it's pretty much zero effort.</p>

<div>afaik, it's one of those SL legacy limitations at the viewer end of the equation. to this day i still have to segment large textures (ie, for skybox environments and REALLY large objects) but i sympathize with your desire to avoid the extra work. i also
remember reading or hearing something back in SL days about textures above 1024* not being worth the trouble since inworld images are bound to powers of 2 and that would force a new size class of 2048* which begins to bog down the already overworked server.
oddly enough, SL once allowed 2048* images many moons ago so perhaps it's possible to reactivate that option at either the viewer or server level..<br>
<br>
also, i'm not sure which image editing software you're using but (assuming Photoshop) you can utilize the image slicing function that
<br>
is used for cutting up large graphics for websites. it also works perfectly for segmented SL/OpenSim textures. here's a video explaining how to do it. if you choose to go this route i hope it helps a bit. cheers.<br>

like the option to upload larger resolution files when appropriate without having to do all the math/alignment to chop it up on multiple prims.

<div>I'm not sure if this is an Imprudence question or an Opensim question and some brief googling didn't provide an answer either.

<div>Is it possible to upload an image larger than 1024x1024? I have a large texture that needs to be higher resolution so the text is readable but when I try to upload (with Imp) it gives me a 1024x1024.</div>
