Pic.Free will crear the memory... You can also recycle variables instead of declearing a new one each time... or if you load a lot of pictures during runtime, you could add something like if picID <= 0 then %image not loaded and ether try to reload or use some replacement image for broken once... |

<span style="width:500; filter:glow(color=black, strength=3)"><font color=white>Make sure your pictures are 24 bit bitmaps. Turing has some trouble with other ones. Also, from experience, I've found that jpg's and jpeg's aren't very reliable. Also, for pictures where speed isn't really an issue (You're only drawing a few of them, or you're only drawing them once) use Pic.ScreenLoad instead of Pic.FileNew/Pic.Draw. Saves memory from the start.</span></font> P.S. Mmm...love the font tags Dan  |
