ArcGIS only allows you to hyperlink to one picture (or file). If you need to link to more than one, this script will build an HTML page named the FID, and embed the pictures that are referenced in hyperlink fields. You can then use your field calculator to build a hyperlink to this new HTML page, or you could alter this script to do that for you. You need to have a feature class that has two hyperlink fields that are populated to the path to the picture, etc. This could be altered to embed more than just two pics, but i only needed two. Note that this will place the new HTML pages in the directory from where you launch the script. (by the way, you may notice that i'm no html pro  )
