Copy the image to your server location ".../webcontent/samples/images " folder. Make sure you enable webdav on your webserver (IIS/Apache).

Hi,
There will be a 'images' folder in that location. If not, create one. When you click on 'Browse' after adding the image (insertable objects -> toolbox), it will look into the images folder.

Webdav stands for Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning and you need to enable it on your webserver for it allow access to the images.

Please look into "Installation and Configuration Guide" for how to enable webdav(depends on your webserver).

Thanks
