If you change the aspect ratio of a SuperSpriteSurface while scaling it, the sprites will be stretched and distoreted. But scaling the SuperSpriteSurface without changing its aspect ratio works great. (You still might need to call "reset" to make it look right.) That's why in my game engine, every screen setting conforms to a 4:3 aspect ratio.

I have been experimenting with John Balestrieri’s SuperSpriteSurface (tinrocket.com) and have been pretty impressed. I hope that someone else who is using the control can answer a few questions.
