Help: Sprite wont stand on top of platform.

I made a sprite for the player-controlled hero with very thin 1-pixel wide legs.

This sprite just goes through the top of the platform under him and down maybe 3 pixel, before he stops. <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle">

I have included a box that has the same settings as the player-controlled hero, but with a better base to stand on, this dosent fall through the solid ground.

Is there a way to make the character not fall 3 pixels into the platform?

even though its so thin.

Example

Make legs bigger

I kind of already thought of that, I was looking for an alternative solution.

Keeping my sprite intact.

Go in the image editor, and click on the collision polygon button.

Right click, set to bounding box. Problem is solved.

Check the manual "Set collision polygon".

Many thanks as usual :)
