This is a very simple patch, if you load the same texture, you can test the difference. It's better if you load images with thin orizzontally or verically lines.

I need to delete the texture's memory because the show is full of hi-res images and after a bit the max's window say "error: could not allocate matrix" "error: jit.gl.texture: unable to create cache: out of memory"
In the old version of the show I've used only "prepend texture" and with the "deletetexture" I've resolved the problem, loading and deleting texture during the show.

Yes, it's "only" a interface bug and only when I have all the 3 windows in fullscreen mode.
