Quote from: VictorSteiner on September 05, 2014, 12:31:47 PMThere are 2 issues with high-res: Dimensions and file size.
I want a high-res, this is already low-res .. why do you want to do a low-res? I have a lot of the cards in 250 kbit quality, but a lot of them in the plugin folder you are working on are already about 250 kbit ... so I can give you the few that are missing.
When you make a plugin's card images with very large dimensions, it really cuts into the space of the other windows, like the table. (You can resize this with the resize bars, but since lots of people don't realize that, you should assume they will use the card images at their default size. Smaller monitors (like laptops) also prefer smaller dimensions.
File size is an issue for people with slow connection speeds, or limited storage space on their device (which is especially true for laptops and the iPad version of Lackey). Some people also want to keep their lackey on a thumb drive which may not fit high-res images. Also, large file sizes can be an issue for plugin makers with limited hosting bandwidth.
I suggest if you want to also have a super high res version, you should also have a medium version. It's pretty easy to maintain 2 versions of the plugin. You reuse all the same files except your reference a different:
autoupdate URL
cardback.jpg
spawned.jpg
version.txt
and you link a different general card image path in the updatelist.txt.
I suggest you do not have card images wider than 250 pixels. I suggest you don't have file image sizes larger than 100kb.
