If I had a block would there be a way of putting the block's texture into the GUI. For example putting the diamond block texture onto the top left corner of the screen. I know I can use RenderGameOverlayEvent.Post to render text but I could not work out how to render images?

Edit: I am using 1.17.1

Here is code and an explanation of how to draw to a screen.

PoseStack matrices = event.getMatrixStack();                                   // Just get a matrix stack
int x1 = 0, y1 = 0, x2 = 100, y2 = 100;                                        // Cooordinates to draw the texture at
ResourceLocation texture = new ResourceLocation("mod", "path/to/texture.png"); // Texture
RenderSystem.setShaderTexture(0, texture);                                     // Bind texture
Gui.blit(matrices, x1, y1, x1, y1, x2, y2, x2, y2);                            // Render texture

Hope this helps
