| What is Your average loading time on android (mainly to load graphics into memory). For version 320x480 when png file takes more or less about 1 MB it takes 5 seconds to load them. What is Your time ? Any good ways to make it better ? |

| Wow, that's a huge PNG file for the dimensions. I have been playing around and loading many 32-Bit PNG images when the game starts, and it's loading within about 2-3 seconds total on Droid 1 and Galaxy Tab. iOS takes about 5-7 seconds, looking into how to get a "splash/loading" screen to come up in place of a black screen. I rarely have even a 320x480 png that is over 150Kb. I use Adobe Fireworks CS5, and the editable PNG itself is sometimes 5MB+ Large, but if I splice it and export as a PNG 32 it gets MUCH smaller. |

| My games takes about 5 seconds to load the all the GFX on 640*480 res. All games I make are for this res and then scaled down on the device is needed. I have a splash screen during the loading that is displayed for a min of 3 seconds. thinking I may need to go higher res now as devices are getting faster and bigger. |
