Hi,
I created a directory "scribus-images" and I link each image I use from
it's source to this "scribus-images" directory. The link name can of
course include a reference to the document in which it is used e.g.
karen-birthday-flier-20100801-background.png -> /usr/share/images/roses.png
I do not know if or how this would work in Microsoft Windows.
