Function interfaccia_menu()

img_menu[0]=LoadImage("interfaccia\inizio_0.jpg")

tempo = 300
inizio = 0

While Not KeyDown(key_escape)

Cls

SetColor 255,255,255

If KeyHit(key_space)

inizio = inizio + 1
If inizio > 3 Then inizio = 0

img_menu[0]=Null

img_menu[0]=LoadImage("interfaccia\inizio_"+inizio+".jpg")

EndIf

DrawImage img_menu[0] , 0 , 0

Flip

Wend

End Function

code blitz3d
dim img_menu(5)

Graphics 1024,768,0,7

interfaccia_menu()

Function interfaccia_menu()

img_menu(0)=LoadImage("interfaccia\inizio_0.jpg")

tempo = 300
inizio = 0

While Not KeyDown(1)

Cls

try to use the codebox tags..

also, I think loading an image into the same array slot every 4 loops isn't exactly a very healthy way of doing it..
you should preload all the image into the array before the loop..

if you need to load another image later, you can branch out of the loop and load that one, when some condition is met..
