uuuhhh... In DBPro I would create a sprite by assigning an image to it. Then I could delete the image and the sprite would still have its image. In other words, I could copy an image to a sprite. Now in AppGameKit it appears that the image must always remain in memory as if the sprite is constantly calling it.

I'm just taking a guess here, but I think DB sprites copied the image in memory. Multiple sprites using the same image would be duplicating the data. With AppGameKit, it would make sense to then assume that each sprite references an image number and that's why the image must remain.

if you use different images for the sprites you can use
LoadSprite(...) , you have only one id.
