I am using the original behavioral pattern separation task code, but I'm inserting my own images, and because I don't know the similarity of the images yet, I don't have any images in the 'lure bins' section of the code. (Essentially the task will be the same: in a learning phase participants view target images. In a test phase, participants view target, similar, and novel images and rate whether each image is 'old', 'new', or 'similar'). &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I think I have linked my new images, but I receive the below errors when I run the task. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I wonder if it has something to do with the 'lure bins'. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thanks in advance, &lt;br/&gt;Hannah&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Type&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Element&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Attribute&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Message&lt;br/&gt;2&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; picture.target&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Unable to initialize &amp;lt;picture target&amp;gt; item number 102.
