try Application.DoEvents(); just before for iteration

Add pic.Refresh(); after you add the control.

It's not necessary to be so stupid, either, but people manage it. - Christian Graus, 2009 AD

what is this? pic is a control you added to this.Controls, you can't just call Dispose() on it as it is still in use. And you should dispose of images you no longer use. Hence, if you want to remove the image, do:

pic.Image.Dispose();
pic.Image=null;

if you want to remove the picturebox, do:

this.Controls.Remove(pic);

possibly followed by the former code. :)
