Thanks Phil.
So, I guess that begs the question... does the machine that's doing the
compiling need to have QuickTime installed, for RealBasic to perform
these image translations?
I'm installing QuickTime now on my Windows XP machine, where I do my
development, to see if that makes a difference when remote debugging on
my Mac.

I'm wondering, with respect to the image formats... maybe someone can
clarify this for me...
If I attach BMP files to a RealBasic project, is that sufficient for
ALL platforms? Do I actually need QuickTime installed anywhere, on
any platform, to view those images?
My supposition is that the answer is no, since my code works perfectly
on Windows XP, and breaks ONLY in Mac OS X.
The original image file format should only matter to the REALbasic IDE.
If you are running the Windows version of REALbasic then only BMP would
work without having Quicktime installed (REALbasic might require
quicktime anyways). For the Macintosh versions, any image format that
Quicktime recognizes is acceptable.
The reason why this only affects the IDE is that REALbasic will convert
all images to the proper format for the compiled app. If Windows (and I
think Linux), pictures will be converted to the BMP format, and for
Macintosh it will be converted to the PICT format.
