      Gallery only reads c:\data\images* and external memories like e:\images*
      So store the images to !:\private<SID> and you are done.

        One more thing :

        Put your data in System folder, none application will look in this folder for any data.

              Images stored in your applications private folder will not be shown by Gallery or any other applications. It can be accessed only by your application anyone else would require a AllFiles Capability.
