THIS POST HAS BEEN UPDATED TO REFLECT NEWSSTAND ADDITIONAL ASSETS

BlueToad has upgraded its v 2.4 App to v 3.0 to incorporate a graphics update to make use of the Retina Display, as well as some other forthcoming features.  In preparation for this release, we made the following announcement on March 27th to our Current App Customers.

Additional Assets

The New iPad takes advantage of higher resolution icons in App Store and the iPad Desktop.  Upgrading to App version 3.0 will require each publisher to provide four (4) additional assets, as listed below.  Once completed, please send them to apps@bluetoad.com.  We will submit upgrades in the order that the assets are received.
