Everytime I choose to load a bitmap using LOAD BITMAP, it does not show.

thtas because it loads it to MEMORY, not to the screen, To show it you would need these lines

set current bitmap bitmap number
GET IMAGE image number,Top,left,Right,Bottom
Paste image image number,x,y

So if you:
loaded your bitmap into slot 1
Want the image to b in slot 1
And want the image pasted at co-ords 10,10

use this code

set current bitmap 1
get image 1,0,0,bitmap width(),bitmap height()
paste image 1,10,10


hope i helped

must note.. this is true for DBC, duno bout DBP

Or you could use :


Load Image "MyImage.bmp",1

Sprite 1,10,10,1

aye, you could do that, i find the sprite image hard to use in batch command (for/next)

I had it where there was X image files, and i wanted each one on the screen so i used sumit like

For A = 1 to X
Sprite A,posx,posy,A
change posx : change posy
next A

But it only showed the last image in the first place.

That code would display ALL of your sprites, but all of them on top of each other, so you would only see the last one.
