512x512 is good enough quality for the size that it is, no need to upgrade on its quality but not size.
Go ahead and try uploading a detailed picture onto a 512x ground and try to look for the details in-game. You won't get the same results. I feel that ground textures are not supposed to be limited to 512x judging on how the size is in-game.
On the other hand, 512x body textures are enough since the pictures are small in-game and you can see if not most, all the details. You get what I mean?
