My question to you is, where is my resources folder and how can I add images to it so I can access images using code?
Im making a tic tac toe game in visual basic 2008 express edition. I used picture boxes for the squares. after a box is clicked depending on whose turn it is i use a PictureBox1.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile to call the picture whether it be an X or an O. Both the X and O files are on my desktop.The Games works fine, just as I want it.Now, I want to build the application and run it on other computers. but since the picture files are coded to read from my desktop it wont work on other computers. How do i put the pictures in my resources and read from that so it will work on all computers?

I am trying to create a simple game for children for my final year project, I have a number of form that will display a different type of question for each form. I am aware of the form1.Show() and form1.Hide(), is there anyway that I can load a form on random. for e.g, lets say I have form1, form2, form3, form4.I want the order of the forms to be shown in random order.
View 4 RepliesStill working on a very simplistic poker game and I'm struggling with getting the code to show my cards in picture boxes. I currently have 12 picture boxes set up on my form and when clicking the "deal" button I created on the form, I would like a random number to be generated from 1-53 and based on the number returned I would like a picture of a playing card entered into the picturebox. I would like this to happen in 10 picture boxes. So playing cards will be shown in the picture box on 10 of them and a the card back on the picture box 11 and 12. After hitting a second button, I would like the 11th and 12th boxes to display a card from the deck.
With all that being said my questions are:
1. How do I associate the random numbers with my playing cards? (I have my card pictures in a file on my computer.)
2. How do I get the picture of the cards into the picture boxes? What would the code look like?
3. I have a button to clear all the cards, but how to I program it.
is it possible to have 2 pictures in one picture box ? the reason i ask is because im doin a lil project. it needs to have the picture change when it intersects with another picture

I've got a little problem, with my picturebox (and dont know, if it's possible)I dont know, how to randomly generate pictures in a picturebox.I would prefer, that if i click a button, that one of my pictures appears in the picturebox (is this possible?)I'm not that experienced with visual basics (I use visual basic 2008), and already looked at the forum & some tutorials, but could'nt find anything..)

View 1 Repliesi am trying to make screen saver in vb.net i m using picturebox and timer (for separation of time), but i cannot attach multiple pictures in a single picturebox.
View 1 RepliesThe project: As one of the projects for my Advanced Visual Basic course, I'm implementing a Concentration game very much like this project:(url)
The issue: I've got most of the logic working but I'm getting really weird behavior when I flip the cards. The first one flips fine. The second one is *supposed* to flip and hold for a second (I use a Thread.Threading.sleep(1000)) then flip back to covered if they're not a match.
For some reason, if they don't match it never flips the second card over so that you can see the picture underneath. It evaluates correctly but if the pics don't match, you never get to see the 2nd card.
Secondary issue (not as critical): At lines 67-79 there are some bits of code that are commented out. I'm trying to use a For Each loop to go through all my picture box controls and assign them to the array of structures and then assign the cover image without having to do it one at a time. It would save me about 250 lines of code and help me to still respect myself in the morning.
In addition to including my code, I will upload a copy of the entire project folder in case anyone wants to compile it and see the behavior for themselves.[code...]
here is some of the code that i have:
Public Function CaptureImage(ByVal X As Integer, ByVal Y As Integer, ByVal Width As Integer, ByVal Height As Integer) As Bitmap
Dim JPEG As New Bitmap(Width, Height)
Dim G As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(JPEG)[code]....
when the timer hits a 2 second interval the picturebox on form 3 gets a new image from the screen shot that form 4 takes off of form4's area. i want the user to select a folder with the "folder browser dialog" and i want each frame capture to be saved to the folder (every 2 seconds) that the user chooses as "1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg" etc .
I have a form which contains a tab control with three tabs on it. On a second tab there is a PictureBox. The problem is I can't figure out how to check if the PictureBox is completely loaded.I can't put "pictureBox.CreateGraphics.DrawRectangle(Pens.Aqua, 100, 100, 100, 100)" into a form load event because picturebox is not active until I click on the tab2. It neither works with tab2.enter event nor any other events I have tried so far. However it works through the button.click event and it works briefly with the picturebox.paint event before its wiped out. So I presume it will work with a timer event as well.But the question is how to to make it work without a button or a timer?

it gives a mistake telling that listbox1 is not a member of Resource1. I know this; but the result of Listbox1.selected item is a member of resource1...
i am referencing my resources at startup so i do not need to access my resources again as i know it would create an identicle instance of that resource and you can not compare them.But i am trying to determine the current picturebox image. I can using the if statement If pictureboxcurrentimage Is _myreferencedmembervariable Then But using if seems messy since i have a lot og images so want to use select case.
Select Case pictureboxcurrentimage
Case _myreferencedmembervariable
End Select
error '=' is not defined for types 'System.Drawing.Image' and 'System.Drawing.Image case is Error1Relational operator expected.
