Correct

Now, I'm just wondering... for the "base.gif" part, would it be better
to write out the whole directory?
No because that requires that your user install the program and
other files exactly where you did. Thats not friendly. Instead use
a relative path, for example keep the images in a sub-directory
of your project and have a registry setting or config file or
environment variable specify where that directory is. You can
then read the config data at startup and use that to create
the path for the image.
