Max 7. Reading pictures from web, and store them in a dynamic array of images?

Dalmazzo's icon

Hi all!
How can I read images taken from an known url. They are .jpeg taken from Facebook and twitter. I have the link of the pictures but how can i pass them to a dynamic array of images?
In code I know how to do it but in Max7 not quite sure. Do I have to limit the amount of pictures loaded into a predefine set of jit.matrix objects?
Thanks a lot for the help.

Perhaps this example points you in the right direction.

Otherwise, I'd suggest checking out the Jitter tutorials, and posting your efforts so that someone could offer concrete advice.

Hey Joshua,
Thanks for the link!
My question is more related to how to manage many different planes with pictures, but dynamically, I don't want to restrict the planes to a specific number of pictures. My folder can contain from 0 to 100 pictures, how can I manage to texture the same number of planes with them? Should I have to code it in java? or exist an object that can handle those planes in OPENGL?
It is clear the question?
Thanks

David
