Your bitmap's dimensions have be to the power of 2.

IE: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32...512

Use anything that's a power of two.

Both the numbers have to be a power of 2. To change the values, just go into the image properties and it should be in there. You just have to experement with what looks good. Sometimes the the dimensions mess the pic up, so just mess around with it.
