Optimal actor image file type

R3BORNUK

Had a quick look through the forum and I can't see this addressed.

Is there an optimal file type for actor images? If so, what are the benefits?

Thank you

Gamesalad prefers .PNG files. If you import a .JPG file for example, Gamesalad will convert it to a .PNG file anyway.

Make sure to use 72 dpi images.

And always keep these ratios:
8 x 8
16 x 16
32 x 32
64 x 64
128 x 128
256 x 256
512 x 512
1024 x 1024
2048 x 2048
or
32 x 64
8 x 256
1024 x 512
I hope you got my point.

You don't always have to stick to those ratios, for example if you have a 400 x 500 pixel actor there would be absolutely no benefit in making it 512 x 512 pixels.
