| I do not know if the problem is the image file itself but recently my game became stuck and unresponsive when attempting to load a png file which had been saved using the application FSViewer but it ran well after opening the png file and saving it using Paint.NET. |

 | ||
| will give it a try thx! thought maybe it was because my file was bmp, but i thought bmp was supported. ill try both with paint now thanks bud will report back | 
| 
 | ||
| it worked!!! that was fustrating. seems monkey doesnt like bmp | 
| 
 | ||
| do you know what file types are supported | 
| 
 | ||
| Depends on the target platform. When you open the help files, right there is a link "File formats". It will bring you to a page that list what format is suported on which target platform. |

| Thank you for this information MikeHart ! I was always searching in my old sources (where i test plateform target). |
