i added it via add-existing item

I believe you still have to use the path to load it. Adding a misc file to the solution in .NET is kind of like adding a related document in VB6. It just associates it with the solution don't doesn't really provide anymore functionality.

crashes?! hmm!!!
post your code

this works for me:
PictureBox1.Image = New Bitmap("C:\pic.bmp")

also this:
PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromFile("c:\test.bmp"):rolleyes:

I used Mr. P's way

umm you wanted to load the image in the app's folder:

VB Code:

Dim path As String = Application.StartupPath
        path = System.IO.Path.Combine(path, "ImageName.bmp")
        PictureBox1.Image = New Bitmap(path)
