preferred maximum original picture size (in pixels) to fill as much of the graphics window as possible?
2. Is it possible (via a script?) to centre pictures horizontally and/or vertically?

So there's no preferred graphics size. I think the most common screen resolution these days is still 1024x768 or maybe 1280x1024, so bear that in mind when choosing a size for your pictures.
You should be able to centre pictures by using text formatting codes. If you print a message containing "|jc", subsequent text (and pictures) should be centred. To change back to left-aligned text, use "|jl". You can find shortcuts to these by pressing the "T" button in the Script Editor above the "Message" box. In QDK 4.1 these will be more user-friendly and you'll be able to press a toolbar button just like in a word processor.
