Image Distortion

Hey everyone,
I am having a huge problem, that I cannot seem to fix. I made an image of nails, for my game (400x300) which is almost the size of the iphone screen! I put it into GameSalad, and it set the size of it to 60x45. So then, I resized the image to 400x300, which is the original size. Just to make sure I had uploaded the right image, I dragged the image out of the image part of GameSalad, onto my desktop, and it said it was still 400x300. Now this is the strange part. When I go to place the image in the game, I drag it to where I would like it to be. While my mouse is on the screws, it looks sharp and fine. However, when I release the mouse, to place the object, it gets very blurry and distorted. Please help!

Thank you all,
Henry Abrams

    Hey RKS,

    Thanks for the response. I want the actor to be 400x300, which is the image size.

    Thanks,

    Make sure your mage is a .png at 72dpi when you save it.

    Yes, it is both a png and 72. It still has the same error though. :(

    So you have

    A 400x300 image
    a 400x300 actor
    right?

    Do you have Resolution independence turned OFF...if not... turn it off
    If you did that.....still the same?

    If not...then I'm not too sure

    RedSky. You have been here long enough to know That multiple threads on the same topic is not ok. I have merged your threads.

    It sounds like your image is not 72 DPI

    Also this is a good example of Why you need to make your thread titles make sense and describe your issue. "Image Distortion Issue" would have keyed most ppl to your problem. "DISTORTION HELP!!!!!!!" just looks like another thread with someone over reacting that will waste my time. Just keep that in mind in the future.
