Texture Size
Author
Ok, i know a texture size has to be to the power of 2 and has to be atleast 64x64. I am trying to make a menu with a button(quad) that is 200x50. So is there a way to make a texture to fit that ?
or how would i make this ...

i would create the texture the size you want it to be, then when you go to save it, resize it to the nearest power of two, then when you render the button you stretch/squish the texture back to its orginal size.

Im not gonna be able to get code, but I can tell you that you make your texture to the nearest power of 2, and then use the correct texture coordinates on a 200x50 quad.
There are many options. You could use one of the non-power-of-two texture extensions (ARB_texture_non_power_of_two, EXT_texture_rectangle or NV_texture_rectanges), you could stretch your image to 256 by 64 and display it on a 200 by 50 quad or you could pad your image to 256 by 64 (or any other valid size) and adjust your texture coordinates to only display the relevant part of the texture.
By the way, It''s not the minimum texture size that is 64 by 64, it''s the minimum maximum (i.e. an implementation must support everything upto and including 64 by 64).
