Its not a matter of the image format, but a matter of the format's flexibility. In terms of general image authoring, the fact that PNG can specify practically any resolution is a hard requirement. In terms of generating an image to be used as part of a UI in an iOS application, its a fault that can't be easily dealt with without ensuring that all authoring is done in a particular way. -- David Duncan _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
