To Import Images
1. Click Tools > Images. The Images tab opens.
2. Click Import. The Open dialog box opens.
3. Browse to an image and click Open. The image is inserted.

When you import an image to a model, the image is not embedded in the model. Only a link to that image is created.
To save texture images applied to a model, set the save_texture_with_model configuration option to yes. However, this causes a significant increase in the file size of the models in which the textures are saved. Moreover, changes that you make to the independent texture files are not reflected in the respective textures that are saved with the models.
4. To modify the image, use the commands on the Images tab.
