filename path over local network

[Bob Sneidar]

If I understand you correctly, you want to connect to reference an image file on a server. I think this is a bad idea, but if your os has the share mounted, just browse to the file and choose it. You will have to have that share mounted every time you open a card with that image though. 

It's better if you have a project folder and you either put your images in that or inside an images folder inside the project folder (that's the method I prefer).
