ok so my first question is when you use this funtion does it extend \
this way .>>>>>>>>>>
or this way<<<<<<<<<.
or even this way <<<<<<<.>>>>>>>>
basically does it extend forward, backwards or both ways.
then my next problem is when i use it it fades at the edges i have a 1x5 pic that i expand into a plateform for my game....however it is faded on both ends and looks tacky....ive made sure the picture is solid what am i doing wrong or have i provided enough info to make a guess?
