Custom Site column Column using Feature in MOSS
errolian
My recommendation is to create a custom list.
Add a column of your choice type. (image etc..)
Save custom list as template.
Save the generated listastemplate.stp file local to drive
rename the *.stp to *.cab and open the manifestfile.xml.
Look for your field definition in there.
Hope this helps.

This is a sample for creating an Image type site column:
Note that this is the Image field type that is available in MOSS 2007 publishing sites, not sure if this is what you want.
<
Field ID="{BBA5D17C-206F-4188-9C4F-F1721D3B163F}" Name="YourFieldName" StaticName="YourFieldname" SourceID="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/v3" Group="Your group" DisplayName="Yourfield"Type="Image" Required="FALSE" Sealed="TRUE" RichText="TRUE" RichTextMode="FullHtml"></Field>
