If you send an open message to pix_image, then the old image is purged. You are correct that there isn't a "close" message.
Can you use pix_multiimage?

gemers,
Is there a way to close a file after it has been opened with the message "Open file1.jpg" sent to a pix_Image. I'm creating a patch that's going to open hundreds of images one after the other and I want a way to close them when I don't need them anymore. The only way I can free a file right now is to close PD. Shouldn't there be a "Close" message. Same thing for the pix_ImageInPlace object.
