Maybe GEM isn't what you need, I'm just guessing, but have you tried
[image].  It can load any normal .gif into a Pd patch. I use it to make 
lecture slides. You could make pictures be linkable (or start arbitary
code like launching a browser to a URL) by putting hidden 
bang buttons on them. 

Btw, is there a technique anyone knows to use an invisible canvas
or something else to pick up mouse clicks within an image?
