Steve, if the images show up in the Application Browser, then I assume
they are still there. Perhaps they have moved off screen or have
shrunk to invisible sizes. Check the properties from the App Browser.
You could also try setting the rect of image "arrows" to the rect of
image "no arrows" and seeing if that made it come back into view.
Could it be a layering problem i.e. the image is appearing but it's
underneath the original image, so can't be seen?

HTH,
