As opposed to drawing an image directly. I looked around a bit but didn't see anything on it (this is probably where someone points me to something I completely overlooked :ultrahappy: )

I believe the intended use is for sprite sheets. Whether for animations, map tile-sets, or whatever you come up with is up to you.

Ahh... I had imagined there was some sort of performance benefit to stick an image onto a quad... in a one to one fashion for sprite work. Thanks for the reply :)
