Default Is it possible to use image files instead of points in a X-Y chart?

Dear colleagues

I work as product manager and frequently I have to prepare a X-Y chart
comparing the prices of the competitors products.

Instead of using a legend, I want show the pictures of the real products.

Actually, once the chart is ready I have copy-paste every picture.

Do you know if it is possible to do that automatically in Excel 2007 ?

Thanks

make a text box on the chart
insert the pictures of the products into the text box and add some text next
to each picture
delete the legend and let you textbox do its work
best wishes
