Have patience, sometimes it take a week for the busier gurus to get around to things.

Last email from me until I get a response:  This is the steps I did this time. 

1) reinstalled Dia. 

2) used a clean folder with only the png pictures in it, (and no .shape images as I deleted those).

3) put that folder in dia's shape folder, inside a folder named alchemy. 

4) made a new sheet called alchemy and put it in dia's sheet folder. 

5) I opened the png in dia. exported it to .shape.

6) I used sheets-objects option to put .shape on sheet, navigating to the file in the alchemy folder, thats in the shape folder. 

7) I apply, and then close.

8) I close Dia and reopen dia. The image picture is on the tab, for the alchemy sheet, but when I put that image in my new diagram, the image is blank. 

Note: I still get the error message that says too many objects named 1a exists. 

Thanks! 

.ps I love the program. I love that I can make the background colour fit my needs. And with this, I will bequiet  as I might have found a bug perhaps, or I'm doing something very wrong and don't know it. lol
