you loaded 17 images. set numFrames to 17 and it should work.

Arrays start at 0 array[10] only accepts 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 (10 inputs). If you enter array[10] it will return out of bounds

Hi @Rogo and @CodeMasterX Happy New Year! 🎆  
@Rogo Since your image names have a pattern. You can load them in a for loop. Like:

```auto
PImage[] images = new PImage[17]; 

 for (int i = 1; i < 18; i++) { 
    String image_name = str(i)+".gif"; 
    images[i-1] = loadImage(image_name);
  }

```

Change the first lines in your code to  
`int numFrames = 17;`  
since you have 17 images to load

Error:  
Could not load the image because the bitmap was empty.  
Nothing to do with your first error.

In viewing mode and in the app as APK, the gif is not played, “1.gif” is displayed and the date / time no longer changes

Slow down, take your remedy, and rest a little bit. Your loading too much.

Hello,

@noel provided a nice example for you to work with [there](https://discourse.processing.org/t/can-everyone-help-me/26661/2).

You are loading 17 images _once_ in [setup()](https://processing.org/reference/setup_.html)

You are then loading 17 images _30 times per second_ in [draw()](https://processing.org/reference/draw_.html)

Puts some comments in your code (twice):  
//Loading 17 images into array

Commenting will help in the long run and help you debug your code.

Hopefully you will have an [epiphany](https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/epiphany)…

And the rest needs some work.

Use the same loop (with changes and modifications) for displaying the images.

References:

> **[for / Reference](https://processing.org/reference/for.html)**

> Controls a sequence of repetitions. A basic for structure has three parts: init, test, and update. Each part must be separated by a semicolon (;). The loop continues until …
