Can I have a webcontrol push an image

[GADOI]

Hello:
The objective is a dll with embeded images that when the dll is called from
an aspx web page, it returns a table with pictures. So, I do not want to
call the image from the aspx web page but rather have the dll push the image
to the web page.

When I attempt to reference the image from the dll (WebControl) I get the
error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
The imge Help.gif is embeded and is located in a folder called Images.
