Are you referring to the maximum pixel allowance of 2048 pixels? If so, the only real disadvantage other than the huge picture popup would be possible fatal errors if your memory allotment is not high enough to handle processing a picture of that size.

With 8mb of ram, you are likely to encounter problems when adding/editing pics over 1200x 900 pixels.
