EDIT: looked it up on the flow illustrator website. looks like it has to be a bitmap. If you have any other tips, let me know anyway
Be sure to include the entire destination name.

Example --> " images/zonda.jpg "

Be sure to save the images to the same "images" folder that the program uses and it should see it.

The higher the dpi, the more accurate that the simulation will be due to bitmapping on the image at low resolutions. It will run very slow though.

I'm having no problem loading JPEG images as large as 300 dpi and 10 " wide
