Do game sprites or characters *need* to be rendered at 'small' scales? In other
words, if for example a sprite is originally rendered at, say, 500X500 pixels,
will a game engine automatically downsize it if need be? I've (obviously) had no
experience with this stuff, so I'm just curious.

I guess the same question might also apply to Windows' own screen icons: Are
they initially 'made' (rendered) at the exact pixel size that shows up on
screen?
