*IMAGE declares the question type; *PICT provides the filename of the image to display. Both keywords are required together on the *QUESTION line.

Place the image question immediately before the question that asks about it, so the stimulus is visible to the respondent when they answer.

The image file must be uploaded to the project media library before the script is published. The filename in *PICT must match exactly (case-sensitive).
