You *could* copy the standard spinner image, edit it in Draw9Patch to
add stretch areas in more proper places, but I wouldn't recommend this:
if this image is replaced by the firmware, your application will not
match the rest of the phone's UI. To be specific, the Motorola Droid X
does this, as does the Samsung Galaxy S family, and maybe others.
I would try to fit whatever content you have on one line, using TextView
"singleLine=true", and a smaller image, or come up with a different way
to show the current selection (a spinner that looks so different that
the user won't know it's a spinner?)

ok, let me clarify that I only want to affect my app. I created a
spinner with an image and text, and the drop down arrow gets stretched
in the middle - and it looks kinda like this guy's here

i just want to change it (for my app) such that it stretches above and
below the arrow.

You can copy the platform defaults into your project, edit them as you
like, and use with buttons by setting "android:background". This would
affect your own application.
As for changing an Android resource so it affects other apps - sorry, no.

specifically, I am trying to change the 9 patch image used for
btn_dropdown_normal.9.png
anyone know how to override the stock 9 patch images without rooting
the device or other silly ideas?
I was hoping that selection of a 9 patch image file would cascade
through from my project's drawable-mdpi to drawable to the platform
default such that if I put that image in my project's drawable or
drawable-mdpi, it would be used instead.
so far I have had no success - any ideas welcome
