First of all, congratulations on a fantastic program! My PCs at work and home have some interesting screensavers now!
As described elsewhere to a certain extent, there is a bug with the way the program stores the path for the location of each image that is used. It appears that each time a "gallery" is saved, the base address of the program (i.e. "C:/3D_ALBUM" is stacked in front of the path. Therefore, if I were to load a "gallery" created earlier, to change photos and save it again, the path points to a non-existed folder. When this is compiled into an application or screensaver, these images are replaced with a red "loading error" message with a black background. The newest additions are fine but the old ones get lost.
The only way to ensure that all images appear properly in the final result is to point to every image and "clear frame" and drag the same image again to the same frame. This must be done for every frame/image combination each time before the "gallery" is re-saved to ensure that every image loads correctly.
I don't know if this is true will all templates but is definitely the case with "Lighthouse." I use that one the most since it has the largest frame numbers. The fix should be relatively easy.
Thanks.
