If the image is called 

image.jpg

You need to write "image.jpg" in the dialog (remember to add the filename extension at the end)

Eample

<img image='image.jpg' width='200' height='200'/>

image should be inside the mission folder with the mission.SQM file. (I don't use a briefing manager, I use a template instead but this would be how it would appear in the briefing.sqf)

Did this ever get resolved? I am having a problem also with the Briefing Manager and placing a pic in the briefing. I get an error that says there is something wrong with the dimensions. So I resized the pic to 128 x 128 pixels (which I have seen successfully done, for example in Insurgent Airfiled), but still the image shows up as a black square.

Any suggestions?

I'm having the same problem, also with the overview. I can create every aspect of a briefing/overview but when it comes to getting the pictures to work, they just refuse to work!

I also don't use the Briefing manager. It can be that you need the pic as .paa file. The pics should have the size 256x128, 512x256, ...

The code to put a pic in your briefing:

<img image='ImageName.jpg'/>

And for the Overview:

<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="VB">

<title>Overview</title>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<p align="center">[b]<img src="NameImage.jpg" width="240" height="120">[/b]</p>

<p>.....Here comes your text for the overview.....</p>
<br />

</body>
</html>
