you're following the right procedure. Have you verified that the images are 256 color ?

The image files should normally be in a .bmp format and then have the same name as the poi file you wish to associate with.

If the poi file is called 'my_poi.xxx' (without the quotes),
then the image file would be 'my_poi.bmp' (without the quotes).

And image files are usually 22x22 pixels - 256 or less colours.

Regards
