Another tabbed icon question

Hi guys I've searched the forum and tried everything! Here's my problem. I'm trying to use icons on the tabbed menu and they aren't showing up. I'm using iOS, I'm using small png images 24x24, I've imported them into BT-images in x-code and still no joy. I've read the pdf about using images as well and I'm at a loss. I'm sure there's a very simple reason. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi PSMDanny One of the icons is called puzzle.png, it's 865 bytes in size, 32x32 and 72 pixels/inch. I hope this helps. These files won't even appear with the Image Menu plugin I've installed.

Hi, Could you upload that icon somewhere (dropbox) so I can see it. Would like to check that image. It has to be a transparant 24 bit png. When you drag the images into xCode a popup wil show up. Are you sure you had all the checkboxes checked? Best Regards, Danny

Hi Danny Hope this works! and helps. Since I've been posting here (typical isn't it) a small part of the image now appears on the tabs. I think that the icons might be too large? https://dl.dropbox.com/u/12527559/Puzzle.png Thanks Barry

Hi Barry, Try this icon and use it as a reference. You'll see that it works: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3427464/temp/53-house.png As told before it has to be a 24bit transparent .png file Best Regards, Danny
