I would like to know a little more about your plans.
Not sure if you seen my edit on your other thread showcase you site. I copied it to here:

For your problem in managing images. Reading again you post, you want to have images in one place and select them on different pages? Or what are you needs here exactly?
There's a simple way to archive something like this:
Have an external section "files" where you upload images. But each image a separate page. Have a template "image" and add a single image field and may even more fields imaginable.
So you could add a Page reference field "selected_image" that is set up to select from the section and only the "image" template. Add this field to your pages templates. Now you can select images/image using this field. You can manage images in one location and select it on each page. If you upload and replace an image the reference will not get lost, so this is a great solution.
In the php template you would output the image using:
<?php
// if single page reference
echo $page->selected_image->image->url;
// if multiple page reference select
foreach($page->selected_image as $img){
echo $img->image->url;
}
You even can select in TinyMCEs image PW dialog (select page, and chose image from that page), but this will add a path to the file and not an id reference, (which is my biggest problem with that approach).
Though as long as you use it for out of TinyMCE content on page it's a great solution to have more control. It's also possible with a little hack (untill Ryan implemented this) to show a thumbnail in the page list select, if the label of the template is an image field (in template advanced setting available).
