please help me seniors....tel me if you havent understood anythng of my problem...
 

Raster scan LCD pixels depend on resolution of intensity and colours. Normal RGB maps use 1 byte per colour and 1 byte for Alpha or transparency for 32 bit colour in Windows apps, But simple LCD's might only use less for embedded solutions.

The VRAM map depends on the hardware interface used.

For LCD with character maps, a higher level of encoding depends on chip specs with less memory required and less flexibility on display characters and intensity and colour.

we call 320x240 QVGA since it occupies 1/4 of pixels for VGA 640x480.
 

There's no standard graphic memory organization for GLCD. You need to refer to the controller user manual.
