The editor has nothing to do with Images.

Images are stored in a .por file or .stock file. These files are then placed in the \herolab\data\5e folder. These are what are read/processed by the Encounter Builder. If you are in 5e HL you can simply open up one of the .stock/.por files in the \herolab\data\5e folder and add the image.

The "problem" is that if these are provided by LW then the next time you update 5e your changes will be lost as the .por/.stock file is over written.

The only way to save these changes would be to save them with a different file name. The downside is that the Encounter Builder would find a race twice then and display it twice. Once from your file (with an image) and once from LW's file (without an image).
