hello

So a couple of days ago I bought AppGameKit unlimited.I always wanted to learn how to program an app so here I am. I already know a couple of things. Now I'm at the part of the guide where it teaches you how to load an image. My code looks like this:
-----------------------------------------------

SetVirtualResolution( 1024, 768 )
LoadImage(1,"oke")
CreateSprite(1,1)
do
Sync()
loop
----------------------------------------------
So it looks exactly like shown in the guide. When I run the code, a white kind of box with a red cross appears in the left corner.The image sits in the media folder, I've tried putting '.png' behind both the image and the code but still the red cross. (working on windows 7)

Greetings

I found the problem. Just in case somebody has the same problem, just make sure you put '.png' behind the name in your code, BUT don't put it behind the name from the image in you media folder since windows doesn't show the '.png' and otherwise the picture will be called 'imagename.png.png'.
