Adding a side image with different expressions (ANSWERED)

Well, hi!
The fact is I have been trying to add a side image to a character, but I have several problems:
-I need it at right.
-I need it to have different expressions.
-And I have no idea of the size it should have.
If someone could help me, I would be grateful.

I made a video quite a while ago explaining how to create side images.
You can check it out here
...And urh, sorry for my crappy voice ;-;
EDIT: I also forgot that I haven't added differen't expressions and such to the video so here is an example code for different expressions that I created for my project Shooting Stars:
Code: Select all
define t = Character('Tay', color="#c8ffc8", image="tay", window_left_padding=160,)
image side tay normal= "side_normal.png"
image side tay sad= "side_sad.png"
image side tay happy= "side_happy.png"
image side tay vhappy= "side_vhappy.png"
image side tay blush= "side_blush.png"
image side tay angry= "side_angry.png"
image side tay shocked= "side_shocked.png"
init:
$ offScreen = Position(xpos=1, xanchor='left', ypos=0)
Code: Select all
define t = Character('Tay', color="#c8ffc8", image="tay", window_right_padding=160,)
Code: Select all
init:
$ offScreen = Position(xpos=1, xanchor='right', ypos=0)
This is up to you though, but that's what size I chose for mine.
Good luck!

Well, first of all, thank you very much!
It seems your throat was giving you problems that day, but it's okay. 
I tried everything and the side image does appear (though I don't have the sized image yet), but I just have one problem: the image appears at left and, worst of all, hide the text. I attach a picture so you can see it.
And here's the code I made with your help:
Code: Select all
define m = Character('Madeleine', color="#FF99CC", image="madeleine", window_right_padding=160,)
image side madeleine= "side_m1.png"
image side madeleine sad= "side_m3.png"
image side madeleine happy= "side_m2.png"
image side madeleine blush= "side_m4.png"
image side madeleine angry= "side_m5.png"
image side madeleine shocked= "side_m6.png"
init:
$ offScreen = Position(xpos=1, xanchor='right', ypos=0)
Do you think you can help me?

Try this.
Code: Select all
define t = Character(u'Tay', window_right_padding=160, show_side_image=Image("tay.png", xalign=1.0, yalign=1.0))
Code: Select all
init:
$ offScreen = Position(xalign=1.0, yalign=1.0)
I hope I'm not wrong

Yay, it worked!!! And with the first code!
(Though I had to write in the image part: side_image, as you said on the video).
Thank you very much for all your help.

I'm not sure what's wrong with mine but, it doesn't seem to work for me
I'll show you.
Code: Select all
define t = Character(u'Tay', window_right_padding=160, show_side_image=Image("side_tay.png", xalign=1.0, yalign=1.0))
image side Tay = "side_tay.png"
init:
$ offScreen = Position(xalign=1.0, yalign=1.0)
# The game starts here.
label start:
t "You've created a new Ren'Py game."
t "Once you add a story, pictures, and music, you can release it to the world!"
return
I put this in and this happens :
- :((
What should I do?

Perhaps window_right_padding=160 is not enough.
Try with window_right_padding=300 and see if there is a change. Then adjust it.
IMO this image is a little too big for a side image (but it can work, of course)
