I feel terrible asking this question because it's basic stuff, but I've tried everything and I cant seem to be able to position my pictures where I want them on the page...
This is what ive got, can anyone tell me what to do now so that i can have the picture (which is about 300x200 pixels in size) sitting just underneath the text.


And if anyone could tell me what commands to use to resize a bitmap on the screen i would be very grateful... it's funny, i can do it with an animation but the same commands dont seem to work with picture files.

thanks

LOAD IMAGE is what you need - make sure and set the optional texture flag to keep pixel perfect. Then just use PASTE IMAGE to paste image where you want.

Boo!

Im think you've put me on the right track with LOAD IMAGE, but PASTE IMAGE doesn't seem to be a valid command. Are you sure that was DBC you were referring to?
Do you think you could give me a bit of example code using my snippet up there? Cheers Spooky.

Ahh, I've got it.

Easy when you know how.
Cheers guys.
the next step is to make that picture clickable but I'll try and work it out for myself before I get you guys on the case again.. hehe.
