[android-developers] Re: Why is the default to use dpi instead of screen size for drawables

Correct it is a mdpi. The problem I have is that my app crashes if i
use 160dpi graphics so using 90dpi looks ok on a phone, but poor on a
tablet. Hence the only solution I have found is to use the drawable-
xlarge for the larger screens.
