Are you trying to load a set of numbered images into an array?
Is this what you need?:
index = 0;
while (1){
     index_string = index;
     if (index < 10) index_string = "0" + index_string;
     frame_image[index] = ImageNew("base" + index_string + ".png");
     if (!frame_image[index]) break;
     index++;
     }

An old example script did some of these things:
