So recently I decided to make a BlackJack game program in C#.

However, the only thing I'm having a problem with is comparing a card image, with its represented value.

My first instinct is to compare the image name with resource names to see what card it is. However, I can't figure out how to get a PictureBox's current image name.

Thanks~

you could always load your images from an imagelist, and store the index value for that card in a variable, and then compare that to another variable (or array index) that has the value of a different card.

Since you're using a picturebox, you will eventually have the location of the image. When ever you have it, you can set the ImageLocation property of the picturebox. I believe it will not be set if it doesn't contain the full location. Since this is a card game, you'll most likely have 52 cards unique cards and it will be easier to store them. I would just create a card class that will store that information then create a deck class that will manage the cards. If you don't want to create classes, you can create a Dictionary and you can determine if it has the key with the key being either the image or value of the card. Either way, you'll have to store the information unless you are using a single image.

ATM, I already have each image in an array, the problem is they are embedded resources, which means they have no readily available.

Did you check in the properties?
Its probably a stupid suggestion considering you're already good with C#
