I am a beginner, and I use monogamous recently. I would like to display an image on the screen, simply.
How I'm trying to do it:
Texture2D image;
string path;
public override void LoadContent()
{
base.LoadContent();
path = "C:\\Users\\Quidam\\source\\repos\\LearningGameDev\\LearningGameDev\\Content\\SplashScreen\\Image1.png";
image = content.Load<Texture2D>(path);
}

I have put my image inside the project like this:
Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

And when I run the code I get this error:

Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content.ContentLoadException: 'The content file was not found.'
