## Image ratios and scaling ## Image ratios and scaling
A key consideration when using custom images is how they appear on devices with varying screen sizes and resolutions. For example, a custom image created in a 16:9 aspect ratio (such as 1600x900) scales properly on devices with 16:9 resolutions, like 1280x720 or 1920x1080. On devices with other aspect ratios, such as 4:3 (1024x768) or 16:10 (1280x800), the image's height scales correctly, but the width is cropped to match the aspect ratio. The image remains centered on the screen. A key consideration when using custom images is how they appear on devices with varying screen sizes and resolutions.
