Crash in simulator

Klaus,

I had a VERY similar issue a little while ago... couldn't figure it out!  Same as you, I had only changed some images.  With only 3 hairs left in my head, I discovered that if the fileName of an image was invalid, iOS didn't like it!  Once I changed the fileName to empty or to a valid path, all was well.  Maybe this is the same for you?

Hope that helps...
