I understand your question -- I struggled with this a bit too. I finally settled on the template for Cemetery records -- Grave markers ... -- Online images On the Master Source I changed the Item Type to Database and Digital Images. Then on the Detail records I use: photograph, gravestone for ... or database entry for ... depending on whether or not there is a photograph of the gravestone. I include the name and location of the cemetery in the Detail entry and the Find A Grave memorial number in the detail notes set to printing.
