[R] including images in a plot

[Steve C. Wang]

Does anyone know if it is possible to incorporate image files (e.g., jpgs
or gifs) in an R graphic?

I would like to make a scatterplot in which each point is a small picture
of the animal represented by each value. Each picture would be a graphics
file. Is there some way to use such files as plot symbols in R?

Cheers,

Steve
