Hi all, I'm really new to apps and only just started using Buzztouch a week ago.

Found the videos on Buzztouch informative but also some videos on YouTube. Managed to download Android SDK, Eclipse and Java JDK. Followed BuzzTouch instructions on Youtube by 'Mark Fleming' and managed to get Android simulator working. Can see app icon but not splash screen. Does image have to be a specific size for splash screen to work?

Hi @AlanB, Welcome to buzztouch! In my YouTube videos, did you watch the one about how to get your splash screen working for Android? It's very likely that you've forgotten to configure your splash screen in the layout section of your control panel. Keep the questions coming...we're all here to help! Mark

For Android, it goes into res > drawable. For iOS, it goes into BT_Images. Check the How-To section for documents on how to add files to your projects. Mark

Be sure to 'add' it to your project, and not just 'copy'. Mark (GoNorthWest) has written a great tutorial on it. Welcome, and have FUN! Cheers! -- Smug

Hi, you should also configure your splashscreen in themes (Themes or Global Themes in CP). Goog luck and a lots of fun! Cheers, Frogman
