Virtual Directories for Web Site

I have 3 web sites on one server and I would like to keep all the images in one folder and then access the same folder from the other web sites 'virtually'. I'm not really sure if this is possible but it would sure save me a lot of work maintaining the images in 3 places

one web site ha
\domains\website1\web\image

can I have another folde

\domains\website2\web\images that instead of having a copy of all the images in the 1st web site just points to that folder

Thanks in advance

Yes, you can create a Virtual Directory.

In IIS Manager, right click the website (website2), and click New->Virtual
Directory. Follow the wizard, and it will be done in a few seconds.
