Photo quality is around 300 dpi. At six feet by eight feet, that would be a whopping 1.74 gb document. Photoshop will, indeed, open a document this size (I tried it), but I'm willing to bet you'd have all kinds of memory problems trying to use most tools.

yeah, i probably will have memory problems. I'm probably better off using illistrator like mentioned above and creating a vector file. I really wanted to do it in photoshop but looks like I might have to brush up on illistrator.
