You have to give it the name of an actual jpg, gif, or bmp file.

[:o)] Congratulations! (but how does that help you?) [:o)]

I'm not stumped. I didn't have any difficulty at all using the command. The one who seems to be stumped is you.

Since I don't normally use image files, I didn't happen to have any in my zMUD directory or MUD subdirectories. However, I had no difficulty when I supplied a path.
#IMAGE {C:Directory with pictures in itsomepicture.jpg} //this worked
#IMAGE "C:Directory with pictures in itsomepicture.jpg" //so did this

Short names also work, if you remember that ~ is a special character.
#IMAGE "C:Direct~~1somepi~~1.jpg"

OK tried that it worked !

Seems the defult path is zmud
I could suggest mybee changeing this to the current mud dir. ?
I can see this being a problem with a scripter or mud wanting to allow users to dl graphic packs , its just neat to be able to keep everything within one folder, sure you could specifty zmudblablamudimages which everyone on that mud would 99% of the time have , but what if they renamed there folder ? what if they have 2 or 3 mudfolders for that mud that use ? ,

Like i said IMHO it would be nice for just like the sound files , defult path be zmudmudnameimages theres already a images folder there :) , just a tip to think about

Adding a note in the help file that the releative path is zmud

for now i have to specifiy the path from the zmud dir :(

Anyways , Thanks for the help man !
