    For jpg, you need the appropriate imageformat plugin to be present. Otherwise: check your paths. Are you sure that in your application the images come from the resources, and not from the file system?

      i got the same problem on jpg and png.

      The pictures are located at
      Project folder/Pictures/Subfolder
      I have added a new resource file via right click on project->add new
      After that i created the pushbutton and changed the icon

      In other words i can see the icon when i am on the designer but when i execute it i don't

        What path are you using to load the icons?

            The solution is find and put the folder "imageformats" in the same folder of the app .

            or in the system32 folder, and add these lines in main.cpp.
            @

            ifdef Q_OS_WIN32

            QString env = getenv ("SYSTEMROOT");
            #endif

            ifdef Q_OS_WIN32

            QCoreApplication :: addLibraryPath (env + "\ system32");

            endif@

              That should not be needed for .png files. PNG support is build in, and does not rely on plugins.

                Must have something to do with Windows.
                I am using icons this way 2 years on Qt for Ubuntu...

                  Try cleaning the project and running qmake again.Had the same problem a few days ago and it seems that changes to the ressource files were being ignored.

                      In this case more likely it is qmake and the makefiles it generates that screw up...
