display.newImage not showing up

So i did

local sky = display.newImage( “bkg_clouds.png” )

working with the sample project, but nothing was showing up.

I was refreshing the corona simulator.

well, you could try print(sky) to see if it comes up in the console log. Have you checked capitalisation ?

Yes, i checked the caps, and nothing showed up in the console.

This is all that shows up in the console:

That’s wierd. Do you get any console output if you put print(“test”) before the display.newImage() call ?

What do you mean by “Working with the sample project”?

i.e. where did you put this display.newImage line within the existing main.lua?
