Crashed on Classic, not Windows

Update:  Tried it on Mac Classic and Windows (originally built on 
OSX), both the original stack and the newly built one.

The original stack appears to be hosed visually.  All colors are 
totally weird and images as well.  As though trying to view in 4 
colors.  A field with a white bg and black text now has a black bg 
and orange text.

The new stack is visually fine with one exception (described below). 
Colors and images are as expected.  In attempting to use the stack, a 
bomb occurred.  The system bomb error, "Sorry a system error 
occurred.  Metacard PPC address error."  Crash and burn, hard restart.

So I tried the new stack on Windows.  Visually okay with one 
exception (described below).  Stack behaves okay.  No crashes.

The weird thing on all platforms is that now some images do not 
appear.  They exist, you can see them listed in the Control Browser. 
You can click on the image in the Control Browser and see the handles 
where the image should be.  They are visible, and nothing is on top 
of them (tried moving them up just to make sure, and hiding and 
showing just to make sure) but no image is visible.  These were 
imported, not the pointer to a file but the actual image.  Some were 
.png and others .jpg.

This is both in the old stack and the new stack.

Will re-import the offending images and see if I can find out why it 
is crashing on Macs and not Windows all of a sudden.
