Android: failed to convert @drawable/picture into a drawable

Restart Eclipse (unfortunately) and the problem will go away.

Also check if the resource-name contains any illegal characters (for me it was a "-" in my-image)

If re-starting Eclipse does not correct the problem, make sure that the image name begins with an alpha character (non-numeric).

file name must contain only abc...xyz 012...789 _ . in Resources folder.

for ex:

my-image.png is False!
MyImage.png is False!
my image.png is False!
...
...

my-xml.xml is False!
MyXml.xml is False!
my xml.xml is False!
...
...

This is because your Image name contains "-" symbol . the only allowed characters are [a-zA-Z0-9_.]

Thanks
