Technically, it's (20mb*~150) or 3gb + ReactOS. So 8gb would work.

No, it will be 4k icons that should automatically be downscaled.

Well, here's the thing. Until the devs support 1080 by 1080 icons or larger, they will have an amount if crapiness to them. However, the icons will have 3840 by 3840 for future scalability. Don't worry, each file is only 600kb on average.

Windows XP/Server 2003 (the OS target) doesn't accept PNG icons and the maximum size was 48x48.

I'll see if I can change that, as some people don't like an pixely os with cringy icons and labels. However, some do, which is why I think we should have two different iso images.

If you add PNG, it would good to add the possibility for other format too.

Isn't a .ico able to have a Alpha channel as well? Then it should be fine if you were worrying about transparency.
