hud: 128*128. Ship image should be about 96*96 in it thought. Also make it 16bit grayscale.
There at 8 hud icons:
0.pcx =North facing
1.pcx =Northeast facing
2.pcx =East facing
3.pcx =Southeast
4.pcx =South
5.pcx =Southwest
6.pcx =West
7.pcx =Northwest facing.

Beauty: 256*192. 16 bit. I like to put a borde of some kind aroundit. Also, any color that is black (0,0,0) is considered transparent.

thanks man.

So what your saying is that the map image and the hud icons use the same size right?

There's only 1 hud icon. Map icons don't have a set size. You may want to use 32x32 for ships and 16x16 for fighters, or something like that.

you can use beyond 128x128 on the map to

we use 32 for fighters and smalll cap ships, 64 for bigger cap ships 96 for the mongo huge ships and 128 for bases
