Treehouse Guest TeacherYou should be able to assign a new image: self.imageview.image = newImage.

198 Pointshi amit
i tried the below code as you suggested but its not working
@property (strong,nonatomic)IBOutlet UIImageView *imageview ;
UIImage *img;
if (index == 0 )
{
//img = [UIImage imageNamed:@"A.png"];
//[imageview setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"A.png"]];
NSLog(@"0");
img = [UIImage imageNamed:@"A.png"];
self.imageview.image = img;
}
else
{
//img = [UIImage imageNamed:@"B.png"];
// [imageview setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"B.png"]];
NSLog(@"1");
img = [UIImage imageNamed:@"B.png"];
self.imageview.image = img;
}
[self.view insertSubview:self.imageview atIndex:0];

Treehouse Guest TeacherWhere do you have the above? If it's in the viewDidLoad method then it only executes once.
The other issue is that you should not be inserting a subview each time you change the image. When you send the message insertSubview the view adds image view to its view hierarchy. But it seems like you already have the imageView in your view hierarchy since its an IBOutlet which means that there is an image view on the storyboard. By sending the message [self.view insertSubview:self.imageview atIndex:0]; you are instructing the view to add the image view behind every other view since your index is 0.

198 PointsSo this means i have to change the index every time i assign the new image and my index should go on increment till the app runs.
Amit Bijlani
Treehouse Guest TeacherThe first question is do you have an image view on your storyboard? If so, then you don't need to add it again to your view hierarchy. It already exists. Just change the image without doing insertSubview.
