Android vs Multiple Display

I am developing an Android App @ 1.6 API level. I need to adjust my layout for every Device for which I am deciding to treat some of the layout object by programmatically and some by designing multiple drawable/ layout. As I see my application is not looking good in Tablets e.g., Amazon kindle fire. 1024 x 768 [169 ppi]

My question is that if I design multiple images to handle multiple screen sizes i.e., hdp | xhdp | Md., my application size will more large. I have approx 30 to 40 such type of images.

What should I do for it?

Thanks...

It is inevitable that the more use of images, the more app size is. But I think you can reduce that using some smart ideas.

  1. Use always PNG images instead of JPGs
  2. Try to use Nine Patch PNG. (How to Draw Nine Patch)
  3. If you target Tablets I think a separate App will be nice. Because in Tablet people are normally expecting rich UI.
