Hey guys, I've got no idea how to do this.. I'd like to import a picture I've made (as a title page kinda deal), then have the user press any key to continue on to the game. Someone help me with this? Thanks, Chris  |

loop Pic.ScreenLoad ("picname.jpg", 125, 40, picCopy) exit when hasch end loop **GAME CODE** -make sure that the picture is in the same folder as the program  |

 this way is better than the above because there is no unessecary looping and your not loading a sprite over and over again,  |

I agree with tallguy. his is a lot easier to use. if you dont want to use the user input, then just use the Pic.ScreenLoad (............) and a delay (time).  |

However the one that he is using, is constantly re-drawing the same image over and over again. Just doing it once is fine enough. 
 One picture drawn, not continueous, and not asking for user input.  |

yes, but you need to procede once 'hasch', so a loop is needed  |

turing is srs bzns 
 NOTE HOW THE PICTURE BEING DRAWN ISNT IN THE LOOP. I KNOW IT'S A HARD CONCEPT BUT PLEASE BEAR WITH US.  |

As for "easier for people starting programing" it is probably better to teach them the right way first to avoid picking up bad coding habits  |
