Is there an easy way to go back & replace all the pictures in a finished project?

I'm asking because having watched my finished movie on a TV, I've decided that I want to use bigger versions of all the pictures, which means completely replacing the ones I've already used in the project. Is there some kind of trick or command for swapping old for new, i.e. for example it would be good to just right click on a picture and have an option to specify a new picture to replace it. Is there anything like that?

I'm aware that you can cut out stuff from the time-line, but it often seems to muck things up for me, i.e all the text entries get out of sync & need repositioning, etc.

Many thanks.

Place the new image in an unused track and set it to the exact duration of the image you wish to replace. Drag and drop the new image EXACTLY on top of the old image. You should get an option to insert or overwrite. Choose overwrite, but be aware that if you do not get it in the exact spot of the old image you may get fragments. It's not hard, but you have to be careful. __________________________________
