More screen sizes #44

Do you plan on offering more screen sizes built in? I am trying this with a larger screen (epd12in48b_V2) with no luck.

I think it should be possible, but I have no idea how to test it. I can 'develop' something locally but I'd only be able to view the image, but not the final step which is rendering the image onto screen.

From what I can tell the resolution of that one is 1304 x 984 so it'd just require a new layout at that resolution, and the code can still work by replacing text in the SVG. That's probably the easy part, and it is also one with more potential, because there is more resolution, more space for extra data.
