You can create sprites in any software and export it to e.g. PNG (other formats might work as well). The image size doesn't have to be a power of two or something, and the limit is the following:

(1B C ) width	Sprite Width in bytes [1-63] (Beware, not in pixels!)
(1B B ) height	Sprite Height in bytes (>0)

(from the CPCTelera docs)
Apart from that, have a look at the cfg/image_conversion.mk file in your CPCTelera project folder, there you'll find a detailed explanation of how Img2CPC works, what parameters it takes etc.
