I have created an icons in Eclipse using the steps on accepted answer here

But looks like drawable-ldpi is missing, is that fine? Please someone can explain why it does not have an icon? OR Should I need to manually add it there?

You don't need it, any ldpi device will just scale the mdpi image. ldpi devices are becoming more and more uncommon, currently sitting at 8.1% 2.9%. The developers at google (sorry I don't have a link, it was a video) recommend that you don't need resources smaller than mdpi.

    For your references I just found that resource: "Android also supports low-density (LDPI) screens, but you normally don't need to create custom assets at this size because Android effectively down-scales your HDPI assets by 1/2 to match the expected size." http://developer.android.com/design/style/iconography.html – Steven Trigg Mar 13 '14 at 23:29
  • But can we safely delete the drawable-ldpi, if it's empty and we don't use it? – TechAurelian May 19 '14 at 11:37
  • Yes you can, there are many possible combinations of resource folders and their qualifiers and they are all optional. – Steven Trigg May 20 '14 at 00:05
