  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want to be able to change an Image ID through a textbox!
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    I have turned the Textbox to a number but it is still a string.
  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I have tried friends advice, videos.
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local ImageID = tonumber(script.Parent.Parent.ImageID.Text)
	
	game.Workspace.Logo1.Decal.Texture = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=" .. ImageID
	game.Workspace.Logo2.Decal.Texture = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=" .. ImageID

end)

try

"rbxassetid://" .. ImageID

Alright [Added this because of max limit]

It did not work, not sure what to do now.

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local ImageID = script.Parent.Parent.ImageID.Text
	
	game.Workspace.Logo1.Decal.Texture = "rbxassetid://" .. ImageID
	game.Workspace.Logo2.Decal.Texture = "rbxassetid://" .. ImageID

end)

I did that, it did nothing. I tried the exact same code

Make sure your script is a localscript.
Since server scripts can’t get textbox input from a client, if you want to send textbox text to the server then use remote events.

In addition to the previous reply, can you provide the ID of the decal that you’re attempting to test with?

This was a part of my game, you might have to change it a bit to get it to work for your game (Ik it looks horrendous to look at, but I made it when I was starting :grin:) :

local MarketPlace = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Service = game:GetService("GamePassService")
local BackgroundLinkHolder = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.PaidLinkBack.TextBox
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
game.StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts.Sounds.MouseClick:Play()
game.StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts.Sounds.MouseClick.TimePosition = 1
if Service:PlayerHasPass(player, GamePassId) then
script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Image = string.format("rbxthumb://type=Asset&id=%s&w=768&h=432", BackgroundLinkHolder.Text)
else
MarketPlace:PromptGamePassPurchase(player, GamePassId)
warn(player.Name .. "does not have the gamepass")
end
end)
