They are for using different art for high, medium, and low resolution
devices. I'm not sure if the sdk does automatic scaling of drawables
but if you create your image as a hi-res original then scale down
copies for the low and medium resolution devices it will look better
and load faster than if you scale it  at runtime.

Take this with a grain of salt, I'm not 100% sure. Sorry I don't have
a better explanation, hopefully someone else can clarify.
