*sigh*
Perhaps I should learn to check my .rcp file before posting.
The image in question is defined like this:
BITMAPFAMILYEX ID famPaused
COMPRESS
BEGIN
BITMAP "im/paused.bmp" BPP 1
BITMAP "im/paused.bmp" BPP 2 DENSITY 1
BITMAP "im/paused.bmp" BPP 4 DENSITY 1
BITMAP "im/paused.bmp" BPP 8 DENSITY 1
BITMAP "im/paused.bmp" BPP 8 DENSITY 2
BITMAP "im/paused.bmp" BPP 16 DENSITY 1
END
So obviously, it's not going to scale the image because there's one
right there claiming to be the right size (in addition to taking up lots
of extra space). A legacy from when I was first playing with high
density. Ugh.
I feel like Emily Latella (for those of you old enough to remember),
"What's this I hear about Eagle's Rights? That's horrible, that
shouldn't be allowed...oh...it's 'Equal Rights'? Oh...nevermind..."
