"ease of maintenance". If I put the images in Zope, I get: revision control versions ease of updates from development to production sites (just copy the data.fs files) and a whole host of other advantages. As well, there's not the issue of having to keep a list of files in your head or whatever, so that Zope doesn't start referring to non-existant or renamed images. Anthony
