Assume for a moment, you have a global array of PICTures (either

Can you just assign Nil to the array variable to dispose of the picture
Yes.
or is there a better way to do it?
I don't understand. If you simply want to destroy the picture but keep
the array intact, then just assign nil to the array index.
Secondly, if you wanted move a PICTure from one array subscript to
another one, it seems to me that you can't use a A(1)=A(2) sort of
thing (although I forget why or maybe I remember wrong). What's the
accepted way to do this?
You certainly can do that.
