Hi Eddie,
you're right!!!! no image codec at all

but even with Silly installed and well configured its not detected by CEGUI configure. Im using DirectFB as rederer, maybe that's why it dont work? because on my computer that have opengl installed I found :
* Image Loading Codec Modules (
currently for OpenGL Renderer only):
* Building Corona Image Codec: no
* Building DevIL Image Codec: no
* Building FreeImage Image Codec: no
* Building SILLY Image Codec: no
* Building TGA Image Codec: yes
but on the targt where I try to make CEgui works i only get this output :
* Crazy Eddie's GUI System - Configuration Results Summary
