Hello,
Sorry for the questions again. It's crunch time for my project because its due Friday!
We have built a game with with beta art, and my artist recently finished the real backgrounds, which adds up to 240 kbs total.
The project size was at 9 mb, and when I replaced the old art wtih the new art in, the project jumped to 13 mbs...
Does anyone know why?
Thanks!

It appears that that gamesalad converts jpegs back into .png (we wanted jpegs to save space because the backgrounds didn't need to save transparency)
it turns out Gamesalad reconverts them back into .png which bumps the size up by 5X
Time to recompress them as .png!
Thanks for the help everyone
