Question on loading pictures to slide on screen

Hello,

I need help on how to handle a task. I have a server with the images there and a SQL table containing the file names. What I need to do is query the SQL table for all image file names for a selected date and then load them in a scene where the user can swipe through the pictures.

For this I already know how to get the list of file names using web services and retrieve the list in JSON and load them in an array. What I am wondering is I need to download them to show. Should I use loadRemoveImage for this? And if so should I download each one as it is about to be shown? Or should I try to download them a few at a time ahead so they are there to be shown? There could be 200 or more photos to show. 

What do you suggest? These are pictures being submitted by others to the server and I want them to browse through the others there.

Thanks,

Warren

Take a look at the Business Sample app from Corona. There is a neat Photo Viewer scene in there which you can rework to present your images.
