this is a section of my coding for the pic
image=LoadImage("smile man.bmp" ,True)
DrawImage image
it worked for my old Blitz BASIC program but obviously it doesnt now
Check the help files within BlitzMax. The parameters for LoadImage are different to previous versions of Blitz and you've completely missed off the x and y co-ordinates for DrawImage.
image:TImage=LoadImage(file,flags=-1)
DrawImage image:TImage,x,y,frame
when i tried this it still for some reason didnt work
it said identifier image not found
graphics called before loading?
Did you call the 'graphics' command?
The error probably means that you have "strict" at the top of your code meaning that you have to declare variables global or local.
Local image:TImage=LoadImage(file,flags=-1)
DrawImage image:TImage,x,y,frame
Do you have to keep identifying image as image:TImage throughout your code or was that just done here to avoid newbie confusion?
And yes I could just download the demo and test it myself but I'm waiting for when I know I'll have 30 days with plenty of free time.

you don't need to specify the type once it has been declared.
Whoops!, forgot all about this post. A belated thanks Perturbatio.
