The Image Cartridge is only available in Oracle8 because it is using the trusted cartridge interface. To manipulate images in Oracle7 you will have to use LONG datatypes and OCI/Proc*C programs. Note to perform image searches in Oracle8 you need the Virage Cartridge, Image does not provide the necessary signatures to perform searches.
