Don't worry about it. Just wait and it will compile the map. Everyone has that error.

try to have the bitmap a size like one of these: 256x256, 512x512, or 1024x1024. You can also have a combination of those like, 256x512 or 1024x512. Doesn't matter, you just need to have a size of a perfect square pretty much.

you change the size in any image editing program you use. If your using photoshop goto Image>Image size and then it comes up with a box and you change it to any of those sizes mentioned, 256x256, 512x512, 1024,1024, 256x512, 512x1024, etc.

Each dimension just has to be a power of 2. I forget what max is.
