I also want to add some artwork to my game and just yesterday I reached the CoG staff with a similar question, here is the most relevant part of the answer that might help you.

“There is not a requirement for the internal art in games, but we do recommend that the files stay small, and generally JPEG images. Currently we do not support GIF files in games.

> 1400×560 landscape  
> 480×320 landscape

I have made some polls about what people preferred to see regarding the art in the game. You can find that here.

> Hi everyone! This is my first post and I’m already apologizing if I did something wrong (just in case), but back to what I have came here for, I want to know what you think about some aspects of my (apparently never ending) game.
