Really, is 12" X12" tile to big for around a bathtub or is like the 6x8 better?

For tile, I'd go smaller but too, it depends on how large your bathroom / shower area is

I think 6x8 would look better...12x12 may install faster...but sometimes...bigger & faster ain't all that it's cracked up to be...

Generally the larger the tile the larger the room will appear.

just the floor or the walls and surrounding the tub? personlly I would go with the 12x12. it will look better over all.

Go with the larger and use some smaller as an accent or on the diagonal.Break it up a little.
