I am attempting to us a png file that I have imported into the drawable-mdpi folder as my background. however, just setting it as the background through main.xml results in the process stopping unexpectedly when I attempt to run my app in the emulator.
Is there any step by step process I need to follow after setting the png file as the background in main.xml (I have also included my values/theme.xml below)
values/theme.xml
<resources>
<style name="Theme.NoBackground" parent="android:Theme">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/pioneer_lift</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#000000</item>
</style>
</resources>
Thanks for the help

If you're setting this as a window background you don't need to set it as a background for your layout too. (No reason to have the system draw it twice - it will be slower.)
Have you set your custom theme as your Activity's theme in your manifest?
