// how load collection view uicollectionviewflowlayout *layout=[[uicollectionviewflowlayout alloc] init];     photocollectionview =[[uicollectionview alloc] initwithframe:cgrectmake(10.0, 40.0, 480.0, 713.0) collectionviewlayout:layout];      photocollectionview.datasource = self;     photocollectionview.delegate = self;     [self.view addsubview:photocollectionview];      [photocollectionview.layer setbordercolor: [[uicolor lightgraycolor] cgcolor]];     [photocollectionview.layer setborderwidth: 1.0];     [self.photocollectionview reloaddata];    // delegate methods #pragma mark - collectionview delegates #pragma mark -- uicollectionview datasource // 1 - (nsinteger)collectionview:(uicollectionview *)view numberofitemsinsection:(nsinteger)section {     return [imagearray count]; } // 2 - (nsinteger)numberofsectionsincollectionview: (uicollectionview *)collectionview {     return 1; } // 3 - (uicollectionviewcell *)collectionview:(uicollectionview *)cv cellforitematindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath {     uicollectionviewcell *cell = [cv dequeuereusablecellwithreuseidentifier:@"photocell" forindexpath:indexpath];      // think want set image cell     nsdictionary *currentphotodict = [imagearray objectatindex:indexpath.row];     uiimage *imageforcollection = [uiimage imagewithdata:[currentphotodict objectforkey:@"dimage"]];      // have no idea pass imag....      cell.backgroundcolor = [uicolor whitecolor];     return cell; }   #pragma mark -- uicollectionview delegate - (void)collectionview:(uicollectionview *)collectionview didselectitematindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath {     // todo: select item } - (void)collectionview:(uicollectionview *)collectionview diddeselectitematindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath {     // todo: deselect item }   #pragma mark –- uicollectionviewdelegate flowlayout  // 1 - (cgsize)collectionview:(uicollectionview *)collectionview layout:(uicollectionviewlayout*)collectionviewlayout sizeforitematindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath {        cgsize retval = cgsizemake(210, 157+20); // add 20 labels under neath.. might need adjust this.     return retval; }   - (uiedgeinsets)collectionview: (uicollectionview *)collectionview layout:(uicollectionviewlayout*)collectionviewlayout insetforsectionatindex:(nsinteger)section {     return uiedgeinsetsmake(50, 20, 50, 20);   }subview:photocollectionview];          [photocollectionview.layer setbordercolor: [[uicolor lightgraycolor] cgcolor]];         [photocollectionview.layer setborderwidth: 1.0];         [self.photocollectionview reloaddata]; 

as can see in collectionview:cellforitematindexpath have image ready

nsdictionary *currentphotodict = [imagearray objectatindex:indexpath.row];         uiimage *imageforcollection = [uiimage imagewithdata:[currentphotodict objectforkey:@"dimage"]]; 

i need know how load collectionviewcell...

any appreciated.

please try use this....

- (uicollectionviewcell *)collectionview:(uicollectionview *)cv cellforitematindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath {     uicollectionviewcell *cell = [cv dequeuereusablecellwithreuseidentifier:@"photocell" forindexpath:indexpath];      // think want set image cell     nsdictionary *currentphotodict = [imagearray objectatindex:indexpath.row];     uiimage *imageforcollection = [uiimage imagewithdata:[currentphotodict objectforkey:@"dimage"]]; [cell setbackgroundcolor:[uicolor colorwithpatternimage:imageforcollection];// add image here........      // have no idea pass imag....      cell.backgroundcolor = [uicolor whitecolor];     return cell; } 

i hope you...
