Re: alloc/init nested deep in long statement. okay or not?

Yipes - you will leak lots of memory.

Doing an alloc] init] like this gives you an object that is not
autoreleased and you have no pointer to release it yourself.

Not good.

Better to create the image as a variable and then either autorelease or
explicitly release that variable after you are done with it.
