Yes, I can see where they two might conflict -- you don't want to degrade the picture within the context of the resulting picture's pixel size -- I get that -- well, I think I do. What I'm wondering is this -- can you even compare dpi resolution to pixel size, when discussing the actual graphic's size. If you insert a 300 dpi file, when a 72 dpi will do... does the size of the graphic file matter or not? A 72 dpi file will be much smaller than a 300 dpi. It should matter. At least, I thought it did.
