That's because every computer has a slightly different file structure for the documents and settings and why we encourage users to place the pictures they're going to link to in Legacy in the appropriate sub-folder in the c:\Legacy folder.
That way you won't have pictures go "missing" because of the difference in the file structure. Legacy stores the full path to the pictures in the Family File.
