Still No Background (I have project image links)

Still can not figure out why my background image is not showing but I followed what the instructor was doing completely. Any ideas guys?

Vikram,

So the image shows in the storyboard, but not when you run the app, correct? You checked The that the Image property of the Image View is set to loginBackground and you confirmed that the viewDidLoad method is correctly loading the image named @"loginBackground-568h" based on the bounds height? Is it only the login screen that is not loading, or is the signup screen not loading the image as well?

Add loginBackground-568h@2x.png in your Xcode Project Navigator. You can put it on a separate Images folder. I think it's a case of Xcode not looking at Images.xcassets. Got the idea from Stone Preston here: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/retina-background-image-not-being-displayed
