guilleface

ok so i do understand how to save memory on images, but my question is if i create a image let say 512x512 but this character appear way more smaller on the iphone, so after creating this image do i have to re size to what ever size i want, then transfer to gamesalad, or i transfer the 512x512 to gamesalad and on image size insert the size i want. and will i being using memory for the re size image or the original? iam making my brother to make the art but his making them big.

Hi, ideally you'll want to resize the images - outside of GS, in something like Photoshop - to the exact size you want it on screen.

If you make it too large and bring it into GS then resize smaller, you're wasting RAM. Remember to Save in png-24, or png-8 where possible, and use Save To Web if you use Photoshop. Max. size of images is 1024 x 1024, and all dimensions must be divisible by 2, but you probably know that.

:-)
