+*** The new variable `max-image-size' defines the maximum size of an
+image, relative to the selected frame, that Emacs will load.
+
+This is a floating point number that is multiplied by the width and
+height of the selected frame (in pixels), to give the maximum image
+width and height.  Emacs will not load an image into memory if it is
+larger than this.
