I can't import images to the background

Question

My problem that I cannot use the image background in my resource but if I use the Directory from the different folder the background work fine. So what should I do?

Here is my code and the error message from visual studio.

Error Message:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException' occurred in PresentationFramework.dll

Additional information: 'Provide value on 'System.Windows.Baml2006.TypeConverterMarkupExtension' threw an exception.' Line number '17' and line position '14'.

What resource? There are no resources at all in the code you show. Have you actually declared an image resource somewhere? Are you familiar with the [pack URI scheme](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa970069(v=vs.110).aspx)? Without being able to actually reproduce your exception, i.e. with a good [mcve], it's not likely anyone will be able to tell you specifically what you need to fix. — Peter Duniho, Jul 02 '16 at 05:00
