PLEASE help me and sorry for my bad english
Neither of your screenshots show that you are in orthographic view and a set view such as front, right, top etc.
Toggle bewteen orthographic and perspective with numpad 5 and set the view with the other numpad options.
In the top left corner of the 3d view it will tell you what yiew you have.
Read my post again.
You are in orthographic view but NOT in any of the specific views you have set in the background image panel.
You are in ‘User Ortho’, not ‘front ortho’ or ‘left ortho’ or ‘top ortho’ etc etc
Read the manual http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/3D_interaction/Navigating/3D_View_Options#Background_Image
how can I do that?How can i go front ortho etc?(i’m really sorry for my lack of understanding…)
Could you please give me exact instructions on where i need to go and what i need to do?
Front Othro: Numb Pad 1
Back Ortho: Shift + Numb Pad 1
Top Ortho: Numb Pad 7
Bottom Ortho: Shift + Numb Pad 7
Left Ortho: Numb Pad 3
Right Ortho: Shift + Numb Pad 3
