Images in SCOs

I've been trying to import a lot of content pages into some modules that previously existed as HTML pages. I've tried three approaches.

First, I imported all the pages as Embedded iframes. I carefully made sure all my images were local and relatively referenced. (eg: "../images/whatever.gif") They all work great when I run the modules locally, but when I publish the site I get no images. I look at the manifest file and they are not listed, and if they're not in the manifest they don't get uploaded. I've tried "module/update" but still no success.

Second, I tried using textbox objects instead if the iFrames. I switched the editor to HTML and pasted in my pages. The pages look great but no images and there doesn't seem to be a way to edit the properties of the images already in the text boxes to get path problems sorted out for example, so my only option was to delete the images and re-insert them. That raised another issue. If I have to delete and re-insert an image I lose any parameters like re-sizing that were attached to the original image and so have to try and "fake it" when I re-insert the new one.

Enough questions for this post. Any help or recommendations greatly appreciated. Generally this seems like a fantastic product.
Cheers
Doug
