I tried to make an image that was W 480 and H 320 but it was a lot smaller than the actual iphone screen in the gamesalad creator, why? How big should the image be to fit the screen perfectly?

    Yes, it will display at 960x640 on the retina display and 480x320 on the non-retina display. Just make sure that the x and y values for the sizes of your actors is divisible by 4, and that you're designing them for the retina resolution.

    If your using independence resolution then 960x640 IR cuts your images in half.

    also, make sure it is exactly 72 dpi/ppi

    It also seems to default to a size of 100x100 if you add the image, then drop the image into the actor (as opposed to dragging the image from your desktop directly into the actor's image window). Just edit the size to 480x320 on the actor properties.

    However, as @BBEnk said, you might want to consider designing for Retina displays (960x640).

    So if i make an image that is 960x640 and exactly 72 dpi and then change the size to 480x320 in the creator will that look good on Retina displays?
