Background reading will tell you about the following options:

   *   "<dtml-with images><dtml-var myimage></dtml-with>"

   *   '<dtml-var expr="restrictedTraverse(path_to_your_image)">'

   *   '<dtml-var expr="images[name_of_your_image_as_string]">'

   *   '<dtml-var expr="images.your_image">'

Read a bit, learn about the various restrictions
and select the best alternative for you.
