Texture is Not a Power of Two

[sgeos]

The Moai environment complains when I use a 480 by 480 pixel texture. Presumably all textures should just be a power of two to avoid problems?

Yes. This is a common requirement when dealing with Open GL ES ..

One common method practice is to pack multiple textures into one square texture reducing the wasted space considerably depending on the packing of the textures. There are a fair number of tools which will do this for you.

I'm using sprite sheets. The problem I am facing is supporting different screen resolutions. The iPod Touch 3G has a 480 by 320 screen, so using a 480 pixel version of the background on the iPod Touch is the naive optimized solution. Rolling that up to 512 is not a big deal:
