I'm trying to import a background image, and it shows the file name, but it does not show up. I put it in Ortho view but it still wouldn't show. I tried with lots of images just to make sure the image was corrupted or something.
Any ideas?

Background images will only be displayed in
Camera Prespective view (Numpad 0)
Any of the Preset Orthographic views
Front/Back (Numpad 1 or CtrlNumpad 1)
Right /Left (Numpad 3 or CtrlNumpad 3)
Top/Bottom (Numpad 7 or CtrlNumpad 7)
Background images will not show in perspective view.
To switch between Perspective and Orthographic view use Numpad 5
Background images are used for reference only and will not be part of the final render.
