      I will try the clean advice(never a bad idea). This might be part of the problem with my issues in my reasources file, and this will hopefully fix it. Right now I am trying top figure out why qpixmapand qfile thinks a file with a direct path to disk does not exist when the same path works in qtcreator.

        It's normal it's printing false. You're not escaping the \ in your code.

        Anyway since you're using Qt, use the forward slash (yes, like unix) for your paths everywhere and you wont be hit again by this.

          Duh! I feel like a idiot for not noticing that. That should solve the loading image from disk problem. Next, to see if I can load from reasources.

            If you have your images in a folder, don't forget to add it in your path

                That's a question for Microsoft :D

                Anyway, if you have everything working now, don't forget to update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

                  I was running into a problem and it was as simple as running qmake and then re-building, and then viola it worked. I used

                  @
                  QFile testIt(":/images/mypict.jpg")
                  qDebug() << "Are you loading?: " << testIt.exists();
                  @

                  to verify that the image was NOT loading, but I didn't know why. I searched around for answers but didn't find one that said When you add a resource, you need to re-run qmake.

                  I'm posting this in case someone else has the same problem.

                      Is there any way to force Designer to use the full path of an icon by default?
