John,

I would never allow myself to be embarrassed by a computer problem. You 
just have to be ready for weird things like this as always being a 
possibility.

So you are saying that the graphics are always displayed as garbage? 
Regardless of whether this Viewsonic Airsync wireless monitor is used? 
Or is it only when you use the"Remote Desktop" Feature of this monitor? 
Or is the Remote Desktop a part of another software?

I use remote desktop control software (Timbuktu and Apple Remote 
Desktop as well as Virtual PC with PC Anywhere) and graphics are the 
first thing to offer up problems. Good graphics are heavily dependent 
on RAM and Video cards etc. Each computer having different specs, this 
is hard to check for.

I would try and track down a couple of issues. You say that only some 
show up as garbage? Then check if they are all in the same format. If 
some are jpg and others png etc. then make them all the same format as 
the one that works. Or you can try a couple of formats with the suspect 
graphic and see if any show up ok. I would also check the graphic 
itself and maybe reduce the resolution of those graphics giving you 
problems.

Are all of them the same specs? RBG, DPI, Resolution etc?

Are some bigger than others?

Are some embedded and others referenced?

Hopefully you just overlooked one of these and can fix it.

If you still can't find a solution then is the project small enough to 
download off the web? I can look it over. I usually can find solutions 
for issues like this.
