"Create" just creates the new object, so it is stored in the stack (and is
saved the next time you save the stack). If you want to get rid of it, just
use the delete command:
delete image "Holder"
Or in this case, you can just keep the image "Holder" around permanently,
and instead of issuing a new "create" command, simply change "Holder"'s
properties to suit:
on mouseUp
answer file empty
put it into thisPict
set the rect of image "Holder" to the rect of field pictFld
set the filename of image "Holder" to thisPict
show image "Holder"
wait 3 seconds
hide image "Holder"
end mouseUp
