Well, that all depends on what types of pictures you're going to use.

For example, app logos are to be stored in the following way (for best use):

Size     |     Directory   
36x36    |     drawable-ldpi/
48x48    |     drawable-mdpi/
72x72    |     drawable-hdpi/
96x96    |     drawable-xhdpi/

Regular images to be included in the app could be scaled down using a 8/6/4/3 scale, leading to the following:

Directory        |     Scale % 
drawable-xhdpi/  |     100%
drawable-hdpi/   |     80% (of xhdpi)
drawable-mdpi/   |     50% (of xhdpi)
drawable-lhdpi/  |     37.5% (of xhdpi)

Android supports several configuration qualifiers that allow you to control how the system selects your alternative resources based on the characteristics of the current device screen.

If you are a beginner and you dont have these different qualities of that single resource. place it anywhere, and link to that. Android SDK will automatically adjust and place it for urself.
