Thanks Mark. Is it ok to have so many directories? At the moment, on this advice, I will have:
/drawable-hdpi /drawable-ldpi /drawable-mdpi /drawable-mdpi-v3 (...or) /drawable This app relies heavily upon bitmaps, so there will be a lot of duplication, and hence a much higher download size than intented.
