[MapProxy] Strange WMS lookalike

[Travis Kirstine]

I was able to get the standard GetMap request to return a image

http://geoservices.wallonie.be/arcgis/services/TOPOGRAPHIE/PICC/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetMap&service=WMS&version=1.1.1&srs=EPSG:31370&bbox=170139,111320,170518,111537&width=256&height=256&styles=&layers=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26&format=image/png

You can modify the image request size using the meta_size / meta_buffer

http://mapproxy.org/docs/1.5.0/labeling.html?highlight=meta

I'm not sure if you can change the default size from 256
