Use picturebox[index].Image = Image.FromFile(list[index]);

Answer 2

//this code help you to work with picturebox in arraye

public partial class Form_Begin : Form
    {
        PictureBox[] pictureBoxs = new PictureBox[50];
        public Form_Begin()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            pictureBoxs[0] = pictureBox1;
            pictureBoxs[1] = pictureBox2;
            pictureBoxs[2] = pictureBox3;
            pictureBoxs[3] = pictureBox4;}



            List<PictureBox> pictureBoxes = new List<PictureBox>();
 private void buttonX1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                for (int i = 0; i <2; i++)
                {
                    pictureBoxs[i].Image =your_name_project.Properties.Resources.Image_1;                     // Load Image_1 from Resources on property of picturebox  
                }
                for (int i = 2; i < 4; i++)
                {
                    pictureBoxs[i].Image =your_name_project.Properties.Resources.Image_2;                    // Load Image_12 from Resources on property of picturebox

Original Answer

You have to draw all image to one image for displaying them in single picturebox

That is bit complex you can use mutiple pictureboxes

In following code they are created dynamically according to need:

    // For confirm visibility of all images set 
    this.AutoScroll = true;

    string[] list = Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\pictures", "*.jpg");
    PictureBox[] picturebox= new PictureBox[list.Length];
    int y = 0;
    for (int index = 0; index < picturebox.Length; index++)
    {
        this.Controls.Add(picturebox[index]);
        // Following three lines set the images(picture boxes) locations
        if(index % 3 == 0)
            y = y + 150; // 3 images per rows, first image will be at (20,150)
        picturebox[index].Location=new Point(index * 120 + 20, y);

        picturebox[index ].Size = new Size(100,120);
        picturebox[index].Image = Image.FromFile(list[index]);
    }

Answer 4

 private void picbutton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        OpenFileDialog open = new OpenFileDialog();
        PictureBox[] picture = new PictureBox[5];
        int x = 0;
        int y = 15;
        for (int index = length; index < picture.Length; index++)
        {
                picture[index] = new PictureBox();
                picture[index].Size = new Size(100, 50);
                open.Title = "OPen Image";
                open.Filter = "JPG Files (*.jpg)|*.jpg|JPEG Files (*.jpeg)|*.jpeg|PNG Files (*.png)|*.png|GIF Files (*.gif)|*.gif";
                DialogResult result = open.ShowDialog();
                if (result == DialogResult.OK)
                {
                    picture[index].BackgroundImage = new Bitmap(open.FileName);
                    picture[index].SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.AutoSize;
                    listBox1.Controls.Add(picture[index]);
                    if ((x % 3 == 0) && (index != 0))
                    {
                        y = y + 150; // 3 images per rows, first image will be at (20,150)
                        x = 0;
                    }
                    picture[index].Location = new Point(x * 210 + 20, y);
                    picture[index].Size = new Size(200, 150);
                    x++;
            }
        }
    }

Answer 5

The answer provided throws an object reference exception. Otherwise thanks for the example!

for (int index = 0; index < picturebox.Length; index++)
{
     this.Controls.Add(picturebox[index]);
     // Following three lines set the images(picture boxes) locations

should be

for (int index = 0; index < picturebox.Length; index++)
{
    picturebox[index] = new PictureBox();
    this.Controls.Add(picturebox[index]);
    // Following three lines set the images(picture boxes) locations
