A simple change to make it MUCH easier to get apps under 20mb

Hello GS dev team.

So having got Honey Tribe Lite under 20mb I've gone back to the full version to try and do the same.

The only way I could do it with the Lite was to use png8 images.

I'm using resolution independence - a very handy feature :) However, by looking at the image folder in the signed app it seems that, by default, the auto-resized images are png24.

So it's saving my png8 960x640 images as png24 when converting to 480x320.

This means the two sets of images have almost the same file size.

It would be great if we had the option to select either png8 or png 24 for the images auto-resized with resolution independence.

That would make it MUCH easier to keep apps under the magic 20mb.

EDIT: or give us the option to import the resized images manually.

I hope you can implement this, and any other helpful ways of optimising apps soon.

Cheers
Shaz
