need Picture Ring Help

Attached is a very short VI with a picture ring entitled "picRing.vi" (original, right?).
 
I wrote some basic code, trying to display a different image based on which of my enumerated values was selected.
 
It seems simple enough, but I can't get it to work, and the example I was following doesn't point out what I must have done wrong.
 
Can someone see my mistake? Is this something easy to correct?
 
P.S. I'm new to LV, so I probably forgot to compile it or something.

You need to place the control inside the while loop if you want to change it while the VI is running. Also, place a wait inside the while loop. You don't need the while loop to spin as fast as possible and you will free up the OS to do other things.

In addition to the tips from Dennis, all you probably need is to wire the enum to the picture ring directly. No need for the case structure and all that.
