Resizing Sprites

There is ResizeImage() for images and ZoomSprite3D() for 3D sprites...

It would really be nice to have a ResizeSprite() or ZoomSprite() command for sizing regular Sprites.

In my opinion... 1) If you working for a large company as a programmer, you are expendable and when it becomes to costly to keep you around... bu-bye. Their bottom line is to make money, not use it to pay high wages. If they can keep a staff of younger, less experienced and less costly employees, th...

They would have to be on a 256x256 image (since the next use...

Maybe you should check your mail settings because your email to me was filtered as SPAM... it was actually luck that I received your email at all ;)

I will resend my reply.
