Free an image before loading a new?

Do you have to free an image before loading a new one that has the
same image number? Or does the LoadImage command automatically free
an existing image if you use the same image number?

Hello PB,

I did not use to freeimage before loading a new one at with the same ID. I never noticed any issue with this.

Did you find something wrong so ?

No problem or anything, but I just wanted to confirm if it's OK to use
pic=LoadImage(1,"pic.bmp") instead of FreeImage(1) : pic=LoadImage(1,"pic.bmp").
I was hoping there wouldn't be any memory leaks or anything, because
I haven't used images very much with PureBasic before.

It's ok, images are automatically freed. I will update the docs.
