Hello Nisar, when you connect "Current Position" output of the "Iterator Variables" patch (inside the iterator) to the "Y Postition" of the Billboard patch, you can see as a test, that you are rendering (and loading!) the same image 8 times. This is because you told the "Iterator" to do so by the "Structur Count" patch outside the iterator. It looks like, you just want to load a single image. In this case you don't need the iterator at all.
