Does the Adding New Graphics in the JS Introduction when changing the platforms.

For example: Option 1: platforms.create(150, 250, 'platform_2'); Option 2: platforms.create(650, 300, 'platform_1.png');

Which is the correct one? Sorry if this question has already been asked...

I wouldn't expect to see a filename (with a ".png" extension) in a "create" call, and neither of these names are used in the video to identify images. The video shows "platform" and "platform2" as the two images.

Otherwise, your two options place images in different locations on the screen. You haven't shared any criteria to help determine which location might be more "correct" than another.
