Is it necessary to add graphics to OpenOffice. I tried to insert a picture
from a file but when it took me to the graphics directory, it was empty.

Hmmm. Not my area but I don't think there is a "the graphics directory".
When I do Insert Picture From File I get a sort of browser window from
which I can choose the directory and then the file. So you can put your
pictures where you like.
There's also a thing called the Gallery accessed from Tools>Gallery
which is different although, obviously, related. See the Help under
Gallery for more information.
You might find Tools>Options>OpenOffice.org>Paths of interest. The
Gallery and the Graphics directory are separately configurable. It's the
latter from which "Insert Picture From file" works.
Chapter 8 of the Writer Guide may also help. See
