Hi,  
When I load my tmx all the objects are visible but the background (Image Layer) picture is not visible. Intead I see a black background.  
Any idea?  
Thanks!

Was it ever visible? What system are you on and which version of Tiled are you using? How large is your image? If you turned on accelerated rendering, did you try turning it off again?
