I have about 50 pictures (around 300 KB per picture) that I’m gonna show in a slideshow. Is it okay to load all of them in at once (I don’t think it’s too friendly towards older computers and people with low bandwidth) or should I load them in sequentially, like 8 at a time when the NEXT button is pressed? And also, when the pictures aren’t in the scrollRect (viewable area) if the user has scrolled forward, will the pictures still take as much memory - and if so, should I delete them and reload them if the person decides to go back?)
How would you guys approach this? Any tips would be VERY WELCOME.
Also, another thing. I’m thinking of giving the user the ability to sort images (like only showing red ones for example). Is making the non-red pictures invisible the right thing to do? Or am I wasting useful memory?
Thanks in advance!
