If you're in a fully updated Excel 365, there's no need to use code because the version supports 'place in cell' for pictures.
It's easy to set up. Even if you have a folder with multiple images. When you insert the pictures Excel will place them vertically in the column, 1 picture in 1 cell as far as needed.
You could start by setting up a sheet with the pictures like this:
Next, you setup a sheet with the input cells as such (Your arrangement may be different, but you get the idea):

If you see the video, the Image is a Shape that pops up when target a cell, erase the shape when change to another target name and erase when the cell is blank.

Why use a shape when the image can be placed in cell? Looks like a difference in philosophy. I try to avoid using code if at all possible. It introduces a security element and things can get messy if others need to access the workbook.

Patrick2788Hi. Put a image into a cell make the row change the size.
I like this way, i think is dynamic. Cool. Something different, impress... you see.Let say you have to send a file to your boss and 10 person send that medium file, basic... and you send a new way of see that file or even to others see.
Most people dont know what excel is able to do.
I love excel and yes i have another files that i use image with vlookup or Objet with image, very simples but i love.
I just wish to make that projet, i love learn excel a little bit every day.
Its a taste thing, everyone like their own way to make spreadsheets kkkk
