Thanks for quick reply!  Yes, I'm aware of the red X and what it means,
but read this:

This shows they are there ... should they be in some other place?  It
appears that the program is looking for them at the place they are, just
that it cannot recognize/process the .png file.  Note: other .png files
on my computer do show up, but not those in the dia program.
