Topics no longer display after last generate/publish cycle.

More confusing—I opened the following files which are in my desktop folder where the project resides:

All three open and function as they should but they represent an older version of the project. I would have thought the file date would have been yesterday’s when I last generated/published??? Is that a clue?

Off topic but related to project: when I was researching the image issues yesterday, I learned that I should only use gif and jpg images files for WebHelp. I looked in the images folder and there are a mixture of png, jpg and gif. Should I remove all the png files? Often there is a copy of the file with a gif or jpg extension. In general what is ‘best practice’ for inserting images. I know a lot of the images came in with Word files that were source docs. Would have been better to add the required images to the Images folder within RoboHelp and then added the image from that folder to the topic?
