Also it always resets my settings every-time I open Klondike
which is disappointing

well what fixed it for me is turning off something called RLE compression when i saved my .tga file (i'm using GIMP to make my images.) maybe try fiddling around with the options in your program when you go to save your file. it's probably saving the image as something that the ipod can't accept.

thanks for telling me (or other people) about the RLE compression, it worked for me!

For a cardback, you have to first create a compatible .tga file (39x54 uncompressed, Preview creates .tga, but not uncompressed .tga), then place that file in the Klondike folder in the iPod Games folder on your computer. The next time you sync, it'll be copied onto your iPod and you'll be able to use it as a cardback in the game. I don't think there's a way to create a new background.
