Custom Mini-Maps question

I've always marveled at the amazing art I've seen in some people's maps/mini-maps, and I've been searching for a way to implement something like that in my maps.. The editor has an option to import a mini-map image, though when I select a BMP image the size of my map (144x144) it gives me this error :/
"Exception EInvalidGraphic in module h3wmapedpatch.dll at 0002D4C2.
Bitmap image is not valid."
Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong? Did I not edit my image properly? If I'm missing something to customize my mini-map images properly, could you please give me some instructions or redirect me to anywhere that might help? I've been searching for hours on end, I'm determined lol..

First, use the button "save minimap". If it works, then load the freshly created bmp as minimap. If works, means your former bmp was invalid, so use a different graphic converter.

If both actions above do not work, means your game install is corrupted or something like that. Reinstall Era.

Lol I meant to come back earlier, I figured it out on my own last night. But now that it's figured out, for some reason I can't generate random 72x72 maps and 18x18 maps, what could be the issue? I have the XXL mod installed

Lol nevermind I got that fixed...now my last question is? Are there any larger size maps supported yet? Say maybe XXXL or beyond?
