Use an InterMap entry -- i.e., on pmichaud.com I have the following
entry in local/localmap.txt:

   Img     http://www.pmichaud.com/img/

and then whenever I need an image from this directory, I just do
"Img:somepicture.gif".  This is also nice because it's easy to
remap the directory even on the same server.

(This probably belongs as a Cookbook recipe somewhere.)
