I have seen that bug, in Poser12 probably. Indeed, from time to time, Poser seem to look for something in the whole list of runtimes, that stops and creates an empty Image_map node, on which you may re-drop the same bitmap.
Not sure it subsists in Poser 13
RuntimeDNA was fantastic at the time, luckily there are a few awesome experts on board here.
