Possibly, the file names are wrong. the iphone is case SenSitIvE. And also, 'cos Xamarin have said it better than I can:
http://docs.xamarin.com/ios/tutorials/Working_with_Images The following list summarizes the differences between FromBundle and FromFile: FromFile is asynchronous; whereas FromBundle is synchronous. FromFile lazy-loads images. FromFile can load images from an external location; whereas FromBundle can only load images that you include with your application. FromFile provides no built-in caching; whereas FromBundle automatically caches an image after it is loaded. Guidance on Using FromBundle vs. FromFile Generally, you should use UIImage.FromFile when loading several images at one time, since it lazy-loads images asynchronously. You’ll want to use UIImage.FromBundle only when loading the same image repeatedly.
