PHP: Using variable in Limit Clause failing

I'm trying to incorporate a 'load more' function to my website through ajax, one of the challenge is to increase the 'limit' on each SQL request. Can someone point out which line is failing? Than you

  <?php
    include 'connection.php';
    $newcount = $_POST['newpict'];
    //Create Template
    $temp = "SELECT * FROM inspiration LIMIT ?";
    //Create prepared statement
    $stmt = mysqli_stmt_init($db);
    //Prepare the prepared statement
    if(!mysqli_stmt_prepare($temp, $stmt)){
      echo "SQL statement failed";
    } else {
      //Bind Parameters to the placeholder
      mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "i", $newcount);
      //Run parameter inside database
      mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
      $result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt);
    }

    $row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);

    do {
   ?>

  <div class="col1 isection-1-temp">
      <img src="Picture/Inspiration/<?php echo $row['Picture']?>" class="isection-1-img">
  </div>

  <?php
    } while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result));
   ?>
