afaik the way zikula is currently configured there is no way to cleanly associate images with articles in insight. i'll try to break this down clearly:

• our zikula instance currently does not allow for uploading and hosting images. so you need to upload your images and host them from somewhere external to zikula.
• when people see images they are interested in on the front page of insight, they are going to want to be able to click the image to zoom in on it. right now that isn't possible without handwritten html. you need to upload a thumb version and a full size version of the image externally, then wrap the img tag of the thumb with a link tag to point out to the full size image. and that is hacky.
• the mechanism for displaying images on the front page is extremely fragile. you need to put the img tag for the article as the VERY FIRST thing in the 'lead page teaser' field of the article. if you dont it can mess up how it comes out looking. also, you CANNOT add an img tag in the 'lead page teaser' field of an article that is in the 'featured stories' area to the left of mmcgrath's picture on the top - it will blow everything up.
