I just tried to insert .jpg images in TeXmacs, it works
perfectly (I'm using a recent CVS version, 1.0.6.4, or
something).

I just copied your markup & replaced your image names by some
names of image files I have, it also works perfectly, thus your
problem is not because a bad interaction between table markup
and image markup.

=> it seems rather likely that either you moved the image
files, or either the case of the letters in the names is
not the same in the document and on the disk, or either
you are trying to launch TeXmacs in such a way that it
looks for the images in the current directory, instead
of the directory in which the .tm file is (I mean : perhaps,
I guess TeXmacs should probably work correctly in such
circumstances, but...).

Thus the problem is probably not at all a critical
one ; if it is because of some tiny, but annoying
detail, I would be interested in knowing what it
is exactly (as usual, I'm interested in these kinds
of things ;-).

Best, Henri
