So what you can do in Legacy 8, Barbara, is choose an image from your (Desktop\ImageFolder\Image) and link it, say, to your grandmother and Legacy will ask if you want it to copy the image to (Legacy\ImageFolder) and link to it there and you can say yes (obviously). At the same time Legacy will ask if that's what you want to do with other images during your current Legacy session and if you say yes it will automatically copy and link any other images you add for the rest of the session.
