My characters come out way too large

[The Mongoose]

When I draw a character frame in paint thats looks to be just the right size for a game, that is like 3 inches tall, it comes out like 8 inches tall in the game, which is way too large. How do I import drawings to the game that are the exact size as in paint?

Change your windows desktop res. to 640x480 when drawing the characters (which may not be possible for crappy winXP), then, when importing the graphics in AGSEdit, check "Import for 640x400" first.

Shrink the canvas on Paint to around 32x88 pixels then draw your character.  8)

When you import the character from wherever it is to ags, don't foget to highlite the 'Import for 640x400 resolution' -box else the character will be gigantic.
