how to reduce the size of the application?
===

> In my Application i use 54 images.in order to support multiple screen i create folders like this drawable-hdpi
     drawable-mdpi
     drawable-xdpi
     drawable-mdpi
and paste all the images in each of the folder.due to this the application size is increased a lot....
then i try to like this way...
take only one folder drawable keep all 54 images in that delete all your drawabl-mdpi,drawable-hdpi,drawable-mdpi and drawable-xdpi folders .
In my Manifest file i mensioned as 

            "<supports-screens 
            android:anyDensity="true" 
            android:largeScreens="true" 
            android:normalScreens="true" 
            android:resizeable="true" 
            android:smallScreens="true" />"

but it give me errors like this
