Hey Jama, do you have any suggestions what the image resolution of our file should be when we create abstract textures and then use them in our compositions?

Hi Nicomedes,

anywhere above 2500px wide is good.!
Sometimes textures change as you zoom in..
so sometimes you just need to printscreen if you like how it looks like
hope it helps!
