All of the sudden I can't see png objects in preview for previous projects or when creating new projects. My kids have been using my machine lately. Is it possible that by browser options have been changed? I get the little red "X" in the top left corner of each lost objects desired location. Can't figure out how to trouble shoot this and I don't want to be forced to change formats for the rest of my Sitespinning life. Help.......

I don't know of a browser setting that would affect only png images. But if all images are affected, get your kids to turn pictures back on. In IE7, this setting is under Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab > Multimedia > Show Pictures.

Just realized that text objects in png format are OK. If I create other objects that default to png they dont work. I can then change the geometry format to something other than png or png8 and they preview fine. Still stumped....

For text objects, you shouldn't get an image file of any kind -- perhaps you mean title objects?

Try double-clicking a png file -- what happens then? For me with default settings, it opens in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.

What browser are you using and what version of SiteSpinner?

I get the same results as you do when double clicking on png files.
