[Xerte] Re: Size of pictures in memory game

[Julian Tenney]

In the memory game, the images are getting resized to 102 x 136 pixels (it's a 3:4 ratio). Ideally if you can resize them to that will give the best results, otherwise using a 3:4 ratio will give better results than not,

Don't try to make the image height greater than 450 pixels, and sometimes, no more than 430, if flicking between sub-pages (with the little black triangles-sorry can't remember the name of that feature). Saving art as png file often looks better, especially if it is line art. If in doubt, do a screen capture and resize the image to the dimensions Xerte actually shows it, so you'll get a sharper image. 

I don't tend to use images wider than 600 pixels, unless as a splash screen or watermark, but it depends on where you want your text to appear.
Hope this helps a bit.
