That means that OmniWeb isn't finding the OmniComponents  
installation.  You can fix this in two ways:

Yyou can move each of your components into the OmniWeb.app\Resources  
directory, where it will definitely find them (that's the  
"AppWrapper" part of the search path).  This is easy, but means that  
the components won't be shared with OmniImage (but you can always  
drag another copy of the .omniimage components into OmniImage  
directly--they're not that big).

Alternatively, you can make OmniWeb find where your components are  
currently installed by editing  
Omniweb.app\Resources\Info-winnt.plist: there's a "SearchPaths"  
property which is the list of directories which OmniWeb will search  
for components.  Make sure this list includes the directory where  
your components are installed.  You might need to change the paths to  
be real absolute Windows paths, e.g. change  
"/Local/Library/Components" to "C:\Local\Library\Components".  (This  
didn't seem to be necessary on my system--at least, I'm seeing images  
now, and didn't change anything--but it's definitely setting off  
alarm bells in my head.)
