Blitz is pretty different from DarkBASIC...

...as you've no doubt learned.
Load Image "picture.bmp",1 (you can load it DIRECTLY like that if your source code file is located in the same folder as media)
Load Image "media\picture.bmp",1 (That's how you load it if your media is located in a sub-folder from where your code is saved)
Seriously though, good luck with DarkBASIC! I used to hate programming in it, now I love it and am learning more than I ever thought possible. Good luck with making an FPS!
