Innovations of the post-BB larger screen size

One thing that botehrs me is the cutscenes are still 800x600. This leaves a black border whenever you view them in 1024x768. Also, small maps like certain potion shops also have black borders around them because the map is so small.

All they'd have to do to fix this is put the town's background where the black is, so it looks like Maya's house or something.
