Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/2d image on a 3d game

ok, im stuck. I have a 3d first person shooter game, I want to be able to put 2d images on the screen such as a healthbar or a picture of coins for money etc.......... I've even tried simply putting text on the screen and you cant see it. I cant figure out whats going on, wether it's being placed somewhere else in the game or what. So somebody help me!
