I just created a puppet in Microsoft Blend consisting of imageboxes that are displaying a dummy image(Which is a white box). In blend it shows the images but in visual studio (and when running the application) the images aren’t showing.
This is a snippet of the code I am using
<Image Source='/Images/BodyParts/dummy.jpg' Height='10' Width='20' Stretch='Fill' OpacityMask='{x:Null}' x:Name='backFoot' Canvas.Left='41.71' Canvas.Top='147.668' />

Please note that the circles you are seeing in both versions are different controls not images.
Be sure your picture ‘dummy.jpg’ appears in the solution explorer within the correct folder
example:
Solution Explorer http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/4976/solutiontm2.jpg
And if you right click -> properties on the image, you should see the ‘Properties’ window.
Then set the ‘Build Action’ to ‘Content’ as shown below:
