Resources.Load problem

hey guys. i have an item generator script and a resources folder with item icons. I use these for my Inventory and Loot windows. However, I'm not getting Resources.Load in the Resources functions. Here's the item script:

using UnityEngine;

public static class ItemGenerator { public const int BASE_MELEE_RANGE = 1; public const int BASE_RANGED_RANGE = 5;

private const string WEAPON_PATH = "Icons/Weapons/Melee/"; private const string POTION_PATH = "Icons/Potions/Health/";

public static Item CreateItem() { Item item = CreateWeapon();

// private string _name; item.Value = Random.Range(1, 101); item.Rare = RarityTypes.Common; item.MaxDurability = Random.Range(50, 61); item.CurDurability = item.MaxDurability;

return item; }

private static Weapon CreateWeapon() { Weapon weapon = CreateMeleeWeapon();

return weapon; }

private static Weapon CreateMeleeWeapon() { Weapon meleeWeapon = new Weapon();

string[] itemNames = new string[3]; itemNames[0] = "Blue Sword"; itemNames[1] = "Health Soda"; itemNames[2] = "Max Health Soda";

meleeWeapon.Name = itemNames [Random.Range(0, itemNames.Length)];

meleeWeapon.MaxDamage = Random.Range(5, 11); meleeWeapon.DamageVariance = Random.Range(.2f, .76f); meleeWeapon.TypeOfDamage = DamageType.Slash; meleeWeapon.MaxRange = BASE_MELEE_RANGE;

// meleeWeapon.Icon = Resources.load(WEAPON_PATH + POTION_PATH + meleeWeapon.Name) as Texture2D;

return meleeWeapon; }

}

public enum ItemType { Armor, Weapon, Potion, Clothing }

Do you have any suggestions? Thanks
