I attempted to open the project file and put the background image in but it's not showing up no matter which angle i put the image in what do i do ?
Same issue here. I opened revolver_01.blend in Blender 2.82.7 and can't see the reference images under any angle. Also tried 2.79 with the same result. The reference image files are in the same folder.
bblenderggg221 in 2.8+ Background Images are handled differently by Blender; they are separate objects, you need to add them 'by hand': in Front Orthographic (for instance) SHIFT+A > Add > Image > Background.
Scale it to the correct size and adjust the settings to your liking here:
Copy the Image and rotate it 90° around the Z-axis to get the side view and one more time for the top view.
