as I\'m fairly new to C# and WPF I just can\'t figure out how to do this. I have a form that should show 151 images (all pokemon generation 1 sprites) in a form. The way I\'

Instead of programmatically adding Image controls to a Canvas, write this XAML:

Probably add some Margin to the Image control in the DataTemplate.

In code behind, add one line to the constructor of your MainWindow:

using System.Linq;
...

public MainWindow()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    images.ItemsSource = Enumerable
        .Range(1, 151)
        .Select(i => string.Format("pack://application:,,,/Images/{0:000}.png", i));
}

Now you might want to create a proper view model, where you would have a collection-type property for your images, like

public class ViewModel
{
    public ObservableCollection Images { get; }
        = new ObservableCollection(Enumerable
            .Range(1, 151)
            .Select(i => string.Format("pack://application:,,,/Images/{0:000}.png", i)));
}

You would then assign the Window's DataContext to an instance of the view model, and bind to the collection property like this:

public MainWindow()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    DataContext = new ViewModel();
}
