Create cca 1000 questions with 1000 images from a file

Hi,
I'm doing an experiment in which I need to have questions of the following format:
"random_image_from_a_database.png
(simple multiple choice with answers from 1 to N) "
This would be simple to do with a lower number of images to choose from – one would just manually create N questions, copy one image to each one and set up the randomization. But I have generated around 1000 images and I need to use all of them this way. It would, of course, be arduous to do this by hand which is way I'm looking for a way to automate this process.
I could upload the images to the graphics library but I don't know how to make the questions draw from the library automatically. Is there a way to do that? Or is there a workaround?
Thank you, any help is appreciated!

Thank you! That seems to be the way to go.
However, the following doesn't show the image:
Scree plot
Am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: Got it! Just needed to add space next to the quotation marks.

If you can create a list of the links to those images, you could just add them to the loop and merge field and use that as src for the images.
