Look for Template files. They are full of colors and very informative.

Use google image on some "Charset template rpg maker 2003" for example :)

This conversation is now the top result for that query.

Huh ... ok let's say the size out loud here then :

The maximum size that can be used by a single charset is 24 x 32 px. That means that it can be 1.5 tiles wide (centered on a tile) and 2 tiles tall.

A charset file size must be exactly 288 x 256 and be a 8-bit PNG (256 colors maximum)
Each charset file contains 8 different charsets, each of dimension 72 x 128, that contains 4 directions (up, right, down, left) each with 3 positions (left step, center/idle, right step)

If you want to display a bigger character on screen, you can either use pictures with spritesheets, but then things can get complicated based on the specific needs in terms of coding.
