Hi Mark, If you screen resolution is 1280x1024 then OpenGL just manages a window that is that size, do a read pixels of an image larger than this will at best just result in black pixels, but the result will actually be undefined.
If you want to create a screenshot at a higher res than the on screen size then you'll need to create an FBO or Pbuffer of the desired size and then render to this, then do the read pixels. Robert.
