A good question and situation to raise Rob. I'm with bkjohns and Bluesman on this. I had a Client that engaged me to design and build a website for them - then proceeded to give me powerpoint pages exactly how he wanted it laid out.

Hi SM,

In terms of computing, especially website design, IMHO, the use of both picture or image is nomenclatively semantic, although I would say most if not all website designers would use the term image rather than picture.
