Actor not showing up? please help

hello, whenever i try to use a template for game salad and i try to change the image for the character it shows up on the screen as that image but when i test the game it completely dissapears. i have tried using 3 different templates from different developers and they all have the same problem. please forgive me as i am a total noob and i am just fooling around and tweaking apps to have fun.

thank you so much!
Jen

    Sorry my last message never came through correctly?

    Are you dragging it in to the images window inside the project & then opening up your actor and then dragging if from the images window into the actor window at the top?

    There is your problem then @caohorse‌ you must import the image into the project first. Then use the image in your actor.

    I take it this is piracy?: "I did not make the template: to buy the game from the original maker click this link"

    @bjandthekatz i dont know. i am not using this to upload on the app store. i am just using this to gain more experience with gamesalad. i guess you could say i am studying it lol

    Im sorry @caohorse‌ but the link your providing is a link to an illegal download of another mans work. Im not going to condone this nor help you any further on this subject.

    If you wish to purchase a genuine template that you have rights to use, please visit

    www.deepblueapps.com or

    www.gshelper.com or

    www.gsinvention.com or

    www.gsanimator.com

    all 4 site sell versions of the flappy template and all for a very low cost. When you have the rights to use such a template, myself and others of this community would love to help you further. Hope you understand.

    Damien.

    Isn't piracy still piracy? Whats the difference if your uploading it to the App Store or not?
    I'm not going to support this topic, so hopefully you can find someone else to help.

    @gingagaming @bjandthekatz i purchased the $10 template from the original maker but i was providing the link so you could help me and not have to pay $10. do you know of any free templates similar that you could help me with? or have you purchased a template like this? i am sorry as i did not know that that link was piracy
