            NSString *imgPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Img_%d.png",currentProfileIndex]];
            UIImage *img_1 = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:imgPath];

      
        // Create an UIView //
       
            UIView *bgView = [[UIView alloc] init];
            bgView.frame = CGRectMake(240, 160, 10, 10);
