 picture_pool_NewFromFormat creates pictures using picture_New().
picture_New() will allocates pictures with suitable width/height/pitch so that
they works nicely with MMX/SSEx.
 If you have specific constraints about the pitch, you will have to use 
picture_pool_New() and picture_NewFromResource() where you can provides the
memory/pitches to use.
 Do the D2D API allows to only copy/display part of a picture?

 Linear.
