Adding photographs.

This chapter shows how to insert photographic files into plots. The R base package does not have any tools for handling photographs, but recently Simon Urbanek has created the CRAN packages jpeg (which seems to work with most versions) and tiff (which allows importing and exporting some of the standard tiff file types), and displaying them on the console. Inevitably because there are various graphics devices used by different R versions on different systems there will probably have to be some fiddling with code to get the perfect output. It may be easier on a MacOSX, and PCs do not support some graphics features of tiff files.
