Actually I have added : android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen">
to my manifest so that there wouldn't be a upper and lower bar... I did set the minimum height and width to 480 and 320 pixels... Setting the android:layout="bottom" on the used RealtiveLayout (with the Image as background) still will result into a hideous version of the original Image... To try the ImageView option of Robert how do I create a ImageView and afterwards paint other stuf on top of that ? I mean I create a RelativeLayout, place an imageView in it, but afterwards I'd like to place another RelativeLayout (with several items) on top of that, how is this done ?
