Merging map layers

I've created a dungeon map using various bits from different marketplace assets. I'm happy with how it's set out and was wondering if it's possible to merge all the pieces into a single image now so that it's not having to load all the individual pieces.
Nope. That is why I download all my assets I can and make my maps in MapTool. It has a function to export a map as a single image.

Hi Gabriel, the only way of achieving that currently would be to turn the grid view off and take a series of screen shots which you could then knit back together in an external image editing programme into a single image and upload it, while this will count against your storage quota it does prevent the system having to load the various assets used in the maps creation. If choosing this method bear in mind the  Best Practise guidelines for images :)

Is there an ideal size/dpi for maps?

Another free option (because while I loved MapTool, I'm not sold on it) is to grab a copy of GIMP and use their grid functions.  This is an example of the sort of stuff you can put together.

Ah, the classic 'Massacre of the Identical Octuplets' adventure path, turns out the butler did it...
Thanks for all your help folks! :)
