Hey Shekhar,

I'm not exactly sure why your background image might not be centered properly. Do you have a UIImageView set up in your Storyboard/nib, or are you trying to do everything programmatically?

Also, as a side note, I'm not sure why you keep calling [self setPredictionLabel:nil]; in the - (void) viewDidUnload method.

Best,

J.T.

I think the problem lies with this line:

    UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"crystal_ball copy@2x.png"];

You should reference the regular image and not the @2x version, which is meant for the retina display. That line of code should look like:

    UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"crystal_ball.png"];

Assuming the name of the file is "crystal_ball.png". To support the retina display the filename should have a suffix of @2x, which means the retina ready image should be named: "crystal_ball@2x.png". Although you don't reference that file in your code, you simply add it to your project.

@amit I have tried both the image types i.e. with @2x prefix and without@2x prefix - but no change visible. I am trying a different image this time around though. The line of code is exactly similar to the one i followed in your class. It will be great if you can help out. Thanks in advance.

And The Code for your reference once again

import "ViewController.h"

@interface ViewController ()

@end

@implementation ViewController @synthesize predictionLabel; @synthesize predictionArray;

• (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad];

  UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"dc-crystal-ball.jpg"]; UIImageView *imageView =[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image]; [self. view insertSubview:imageView atIndex:0];

self.predictionArray = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"It is decideley so", @"good things coming", @"Good time is here", @"Great profit", @"stay possitive",@"Stay Foccused",@"all is well",nil];

// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

}

• (void)viewDidUnload { [self setPredictionLabel:nil]; [self setPredictionLabel:nil]; [self setPredictionLabel:nil]; [self setPredictionLabel:nil]; [super viewDidUnload]; // Release any retained subviews of the main view. }

• (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { return (interfaceOrientation != UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown); }

• (IBAction)buttonPressed:(UIButton *)sender {

  NSUInteger index = arc4random_uniform(self.predictionArray. count);

  self.predictionLabel.text = [self.predictionArray objectAtIndex: index]; } @end

Yes sir I am trying to do things programatically. Also since Iam new to development could you be more elaborate as to why I should avoid the following line of code you mentioned in your post :

"Also, as a side note, I'm not sure why you keep calling [self setPredictionLabel:nil]; in the - (void) viewDidUnload method."

@ Amit Bijlani and @ JT - I found the solution and it is the size of the image - which if i kept at width-4in and height-5.9 inches worked just fine for me.
