it says:

...When images or attachments are included in the application, MMBase will use subdirectories of the MyNews directory to store the images and attachments. The MyNews/images.xml and the MyNews/attachments.xml contain the handles to these files.

Instead of manually inserting an image via the Images builder I indeed need to have someimages automatically inserted in MMBase, but how do I have to interpret above helptext to accomplish this?

Can I put my example picture.gif in my /applications/<appname> folder (together where I have the rest of the datasourcefiles) and in the RichText example below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<images exportsource="mmbase://localhost/mmbase/richtext" timestamp="20040213011559">
    <node number="8800" owner="admin">
        <itype></itype>
        <handle file="images/8800.handle" />
        <title>Parachutes</title>
        <description></description>
    </node>

</images>

do I have to replace the attribute file (images/8800.handle) then with the path to picture.gif or do I have to insert picture.gif first via another way, retrieve it's MMbase handle of some sort and use that for the file attribute?
