Hi there, this is really embarrassing, but I'm a noob and can't figure out how to make images show at all. I tried using the image tags I've defined and called in script.rpy, but that didn't work. The tutorial just says to enter tags, so I'm kind of at a loss. Sorry if I missed something incredibly obvious, that's definitely possible. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Edit: Sorry, forgot to mention that I got it working in the Attributes tool, but for some reason it doesn't work in the Layered Image tool.

The layered image visualizer has a stricter requirement than the attributes tool - namely, that the image needs to be a layered image. So, specifically, you need a declaration like layeredimage eileen standing: and then you could type in eileen standing to the visualizer to adjust it. It is not sufficient to have image eileen standing = "..." or similar. If you aren't sure what layered images are, you can read more about them in the docs: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/layeredimage.html#layered-images

If you're still having trouble, feel free to post your layered image declaration and the results of typing in that name to the tool and I'll see what I can do to help!

Thank you so much for your swift and detailed reply!! That totally makes sense, I'll give it a shot.
