I'm not entirely clear what you mean by not being able to display images
from their folder, can you explain that more.  HTML doesn't allow for
embeded images.

Ok, assuming that the image files are outside the public web tree and
you can read them with a script. You will have to write a php script
that will read the file (sending the appropriate headers).

So your script will generate html like
<img src="/showimage.php?file=filename.jpg">

then showimage.php will do something:
header('content-type: appropricate/type');
// content-length would be good
readfile($file);
