If you're using jsp's you can't serve images from the WEB-INF folder as that is disallowed by the spec. The browser asks for images from your web application and cannot ask for files inside the WEB-INF folder.
You could write a servlet that can serve images from within this folder or you could implement security and put the images in a secured folder accessible only to logged on users.
