Eclipse, What's Left of It

Before the changes take effect....can someone point me to a resource on where to load images into Eclispe project so my app looks like it should? BT_Images is not an option to drag and drop into project files. Is it Image SRC? I dunno.

Hi @RogueWave, Put your images in the drawable folder. Make sure they are named lowercase and no special characters. LA

Yep - more specifically, in the res/drawable folder.

And more specifically, use the a_z0_9 naming convention. No spaces, dashes, capital letters or special characters allowed! Same for any file used in an Android app. Mark

Thank you, chris1. Even after naming the image as mentioned, I'm not getting the image in my button after dragging the images into res/drawable folder. Even after a clean and build for Android project. Hmmm, I wonder if it's a size issue. The image size I created for the same app for IOS was 70X70, no radius. On another note, the emulator I created isn't doing very well either, I'm getting fails. I did a clean/debug. Running as Google API Level 14. I get some functionality but the App looks poor and is missing content. Maps are missing points, buttons missing images. I feel overwhelmed by Eclipse at the moment. I need to get this version of my app in Google Playstore by the end of today. Help, anyone?
