Icons, *.jpg, Resource Manager

Hello everybody!
I've added about 10 *.jpg's to the Resource Manager. They apeared in the model, I could used them as icons and everything worked quite well without
any error. I saved my work. Today only three jpg's are left, the model doesn't work anymore and every attempt to add some more jpg's failed...
What's wrong?
Kind regards

Adding images with the resource manager works fine within a certain session. As images are only automatically loaded when they are stored on an atom, they can appear missing generating errors. When you have added 10 images in the resource manager and only 3 remain, this means they are not registered automatically and appear not to be used in the model. If you need more then 1 image for an atom, you need to manage the loading of these images yourself. This can be achieved using the 4Dscript command RegisterIcon.
