I can save a picture to a contact, but when I try to forwrd that contact as a
vcard, I lose the picture. I want the pictue to stay with the vcard for
marketing purposes. Help.

vCard files are text files and cannot contain images.

Outlook doesn't support pictures in vCards. Outlook 2007 will add that capability through a new feature called "electronic business cards."
