4,855 PointsDeprecation??
I get a striked out line across the top of my code as well as at some points in the code. Reading the other questions I made the following changes.
getResources().getDrawable(mCurrentPage.getImageId());
to
ContextCompat.getDrawable(this, mCurrentPage.getImageId());
I also changed ActionBarActivity with AppCompatActivity at the top.
This solved some problems. But later my app crashes when i try to navigate away from the first page. I enter my name and it goes to the next activity. Now when I click on one of the two buttons the app crashes.
These two are the only places where I have deviated from bens code, I have a funny feeling that this is where the problem is as well.

4,855 PointsI was able to solve my problem, however I dontknow how it worked. Initially since Im using the new android studio I had just one drawable folder so to be on the "safe side" I had put only the pictures of the highest resolution. I kept getting an error saying something like I have run out of memory which makes little sense to me. So i changed to the lowest resolution and it worked?
