My guess it has something to do with how the PC and Mac transform the
pathnames. I'd suggest you set the paths programatically each time you
startup. On startup, get the folder your in and then set the filename of
each image programatically and see if it doesn't work. I built a 'skinnable'
presentation program that way and it worked well.
