Direct Access to a DLL

This may not be possible, but I was wondering if I can make a call directly to a DLL. Basically, I'd like to store small images in the DLL and have a web request hit the DLL with a querystring of some kind to specify the image needed. Something like this...


Again, this may not be possible, but I figured I'd check to see if anyone else knew of something.

I suppose you could...but you'd have to do something really funky like storing the image in some stream format, and if you have alot of them that could get...messy...and big...and if its in a DLL, hard to manage.

One thing we did to store logos for clients at a place I used to work at was to put all the images within an (ugh...I can't believe I'm endorsing Access) Access database, and we just had code that would retrieve the image. That might be the easiest way, but not sure what your architecture or spec requires.
