Newbie needs help: import image as plane add-on grayed-out

Hello ~ I’m a sort of an “advanced beginner”, learning cloth simulation at the moment… In a tutorial I was told to enable the add-on " import image as plane". I’ve located it in the add-ons panel of preferences, but it is grayed-out and not selectable.

I am working in Blender 2.7. Can you tell me what is going on, and how can I make it work?

THANKS in advance for any help!!

can you send a screenshot? The addons are usually greyed out until you activate them with the checkbox on the far left.

Also, this isn’t the support section at all. We have a support section of the forum set up already, please use it in the future.

Thanks, Problem solved. -Guess I didn’t click the checkbox squarely enough. Will post in proper section in the future.

Cool, glad it worked. No worries about the wrong section. Sometimes I just like to play bad cop for the mods.
