Background image

[Mite]

How to add background image for c++ program...i read something about library Cimg.H..How to install it in TURBOC++?
Thanx Alot.

Please do yourself a favor and forget TuboC++.
It was a great program 25+ years ago, but now it should be in the same museum with C64, Amiga...

If you want to quickly create simple graphic or GUI apps, consider using WinForms, either with C++/CLR or better C#, or even VB.NET.

Microsoft has a very good free IDE called Visual Studiio which would be ideal.

What do you mean it does not work? Any error messages?

[Mite]

ya i get the following error message: cannot recognise the format of imagename.jpg

[Mite]

sorry its "failed to recognise the format of imagename.jpg"

[Thomas1965]

Not sure what image formats this library supports.
Save your image as a .bmp file and try to open it.
