picture on the wall

I hope this is the correct forum for this question.

I'm trying to place a picture in a frame hanging on the wall, but I can't figure out where to put the image that I want in the picture frame. I've tried the object library and the materials, but I keep getting a message that tells me Archicad can't locate the file. I'm trying to use JPG as the format. Is this a location issue, or format or both? I know it can be done, I just can't seem to get any success. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Make sure that the 'picture' object/texture you want displayed, is loaded in your active library.

Still no luck. I'm typing in the file name exactly as it reads. I no longer get the message saying it can't find it, bit when I make a photorender of it I still have a blank slate. What am I doing wrong?

Whoops!, my bad. I had "textures" turned off in my rendering engine. Now it works great. Thanks.
