Screen Size Creation

Is there a method of creating games using GS say for the iPhone and creating the iPad screen version (so it's full iPad size rather upscaled iPhone > iPad)

I have set my scenes to 480x320 (iPhone), what do I need to change without having to resize all my scene, etc?

    click the home button to bring you to the main scene page of your project. Youll see a drop down in the middle that says iphone landscape or potrait. Switch that to ipad

    won't that just resize it for the ipad, would that still show on the iphone?

    what i mean is if it resizes it to the iphone landscape would it just resize all my art/scenes or would I have to recreate them at the new size?

    sorry i dont understand, if i change the scene to ipad landscape do i need to change this to iphone landscape and resave for it to be an iphone app - or can i create an universal app just using ipad ladnscape option?

    sorry for the rather stupid question(s) but can someone explain how they would create a universal app - do they create scenes for each size (iphone and ipad)?

    you cannot create a universal app in gamesalad, thats whats confusing you.

    Youll have to make 2 different projects, one for iphone and one for ipad.

    one last thing - if i create larger graphics for the ipad version, should i resize in a paint package for the iphone version or just within the editor - what's best for the game speed, etc?

    what i mean is should i crate for ipad, select resolution independence that way it will also work on older and iphone4 devices?
