Shaista,
"drawable" is the default. If a higher or lower resolution image is
needed, depending on the screen, Android can scale it as appropriate.
However, this automatic scaling doesn't always look that great. In those
cases, you, as the developer, can provide "alternate" versions of the
same resource in appropriate folders. They will override automatically
scaled resources from "drawable" as appropriate based on the resource
directory name (i.e. "hdpi" for high-density screens, etc.).
This gives you fine grained control: some drawables can be scaled
automatically (if this scaling looks good to you), and others can have
alternate (high-res or low- res) versions.

Thanks for this, but I have a confusion that say I need to put one
image into the drawable folder to run it in eclipse, where should i
keep it, I mean in which folder or should I keep it in all the three?
Thanks,
Shaista Naaz

Why it is that whenever I select the SDK target other than
Android 1.1 for a new project. I get 3 folders instead of one
folder for drawable inside res.
And that is drawable-hdpi, drawable-ldpi and drawable-mdpi.
Please kindly comment.
Thanks,
Shaista
