Make sure your png file is using the 16million colors (24bit) thing. I noticed if we reduce the colors in the file SFML throws such an error.

hum it worked I used gimp the first time and it gave me that error, and after using paint it was a success but I both of them didn't let me choose the colors, so what kind of software do you use ?

I use Paint and Paint.NET.

Unfortunately, don't think there is really much I can do at all with the images failing to load. I don't even think its an issue on SFML's side, but with a library SFML uses.

Definitely think there should be, but I am just busy working on the engine itself. I am always trying to delegate tasks like that to others, but its hard to find people interested in doing it - and I don't blame them. Tongue

I'll add some right now. Might wanna add a primary link to this page, I'm sure it'll grow overtime and it might reduce the amount of duplicate topics (see vbGore forum Tongue)
