There should be no '?' in Pic.FileNew ("World of warcraft.bmp" ?)

Do you get an error or warrning saying illegal picture id? If so it is likey that turing can not find the picture file you are refuring to.

Make sure it is in the same directory as the turing program.

Ok what do u mean the same directory, i just put the program in a folder and then made another folder inside and put the picture in it

Program folder------>Pictures------->World of warcraft

If there should be no Pic.FileNew ("World of warcraft.bmp" ?) 
 then how should i specify where the pic is?

The following should be


var mypic : int := Pic.FileNew ("World of warcraft.bmp") 
Pic.Draw (mypic, maxx div 2, maxy div 2, 0)

-----------------------------------

Specifying where a picture is fairly simple. Locate where your picture is either outside or inside your current project folder.

Example

("Picture.bmp") assuming it is in the same folder as the saved project

("C:\\Picture.bmp") assuming it is located in the C drive directory.

You said the image was in the pictures directory, or in the same directory?

The picture is in a folder, and the folder is in the folder that the program is in.
