I have a UITabBar on a UIViewController, I have set the UITabBar delegate and this is how I set the UITabBar up inside my viewDidLoad method

// Load UITabBar for FindModels View & call tabBar delegates
    findModelsTabBar = [[UITabBar alloc] init];
    findModelsTabBar.delegate = self; // This sets up tabbardelegate method

    [findModelsTabBar setTranslucent:NO];
    findModelsTabBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
    findModelsTabBar.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, screenRectTabBar.size.height - 110, screenRectTabBar.size.width, 45.0);
    [[UITabBar appearance] setBarTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:colorController.lgRed/255.0 green:colorController.lgGreen/255.0 blue:colorController.lgBlue/255.0 alpha:1.0]];

    [self.view insertSubview:findModelsTabBar aboveSubview:self.tableView]; // add tabBar to the mainView (appears at the bottom of the screen)

Then I have my delegate method like so

#pragma TabBar delegate
- (void)tabBar:(UITabBar *)tabBar didSelectItem:(UITabBarItem *)item
{
    switch (item.tag) {
        case 0:
        {
            NSLog(@"0");
        }
            break;
        case 1:
        {
            NSLog(@"1");
        }
            break;
        case 2:
        {
            NSLog(@"2");
            FindModelsViewController *findModelsViewController = [[FindModelsViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"FindModelsViewController" bundle:nil];

            // Sets the back button for the new view that loads (this overrides the usual parentview name with "Back")
            self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Back" style: UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:nil action:nil];

            [self.navigationController pushViewController:findModelsViewController animated:YES];

            // Set Delegates so you can get the data back
            [findModelsViewController setDelegate:self];
        }
            break;
        default:
            break;
    }
}

I would like to know how to create a UITabBar Item with an Image and when clicked would call that tabBar delegate...

any help would be appreciated.
